The connectors in the photo are "press-on F" connectors.
Cheap to make, they simply slide on the chassis threaded F.
They are horrible and cause a lot of issues as they do not
allow proper and tight sheilding.


I don't think that's correct. An F connector normally uses the center
conductor of the cable -- a wire -- as the center connection -- not an
RCA-like plug.

The press-on F connectors I've seen use a slotted jacket that usually fits
snugly and rarely causes problems.
