[OMIK] Tech help please?

Hopefully I'm not violating any protocol with this post.  It is cold out 
here so flames would be somewhat useful anyway. ;) ;)

I am a newby to Type "N" coaxial connectors as regards installation of same. 
Used plenty on test gear but never installed any.  Now whether or not it is 
a good idea, cost effective, smart, or beneficial I will be installing a 
bunch of Andrew Heliax (LD4F-50A) runs and using type N connectors.  I was 
given a bag of NOS Andrew F4PNM (Male type N connectors) which my research 
finds to be intended for use on Andrew 1/2 inch Super Flex Heliax.  The 
Heliax I have (nice hamfest price) is Andrew LDF4-50A, not superflex but has 
min radius of curvature recommended of 5 inches.

The question is:  can I use the Andrew F4PNM connectors on the Andrew 
LDF4-50A Heliax?  If it works electrically but the only shortcoming was 
weather sealing then proper installation of coax-seal and/or silicone tape 
would "save the day" and I'd be "in business."  I called the number on the 
connector boxes but only got a useless menu tree with no selection related 
to connectors or cables.  Tried oodles of Googles and got nowhere.
