Yamamoto Sound Craft Rectifier Tube 5P Tube Socket

5-Pin Socket for Rectifier Tubes

This product is a 5P (5-pin) standard tube socket designed for rectifier tubes such as 5U4G, GZ33, GZ34, WE274B, and others. The mounting hole diameter is 30mm, and the screw spacing is 38.2mm, adopting standard dimensions that are easy to handle in many vacuum tube amplifier designs. Designed specifically for rectifier tubes, it prevents incorrect insertion with US-8P types, ensuring both safety and ease of use.

High Retention Power and Stable Power Supply

The socket body is made by machining fluororesin and employs a pin-fixing structure using round cutting processing. This suppresses wobbling when the vacuum tube is installed, preventing contact failures or sound quality degradation due to vibration. The rectifier tube is a crucial component in the power supply, and its stable retention directly affects the operational stability and sound quality of the entire amplifier.

Excellent Insulation with Fluororesin Body

The used fluororesin (tetrafluoroethylene) has extremely high electrical insulation and a low dielectric constant, as well as excellent heat resistance. It can be safely used in high-voltage rectifier circuits, contributing to building a clean and stable power environment while minimizing unwanted electrical effects.

Phosphor Bronze Pins with Gold Plating

The socket pins are made of phosphor bronze, which offers excellent strength and springiness, maintaining stable contact even with long-term use. In addition, a thick layer of gold plating is applied over a non-magnetic base treatment to reduce contact resistance, transmitting the current supplied from the rectifier tube to the circuit without loss. This specification is suitable for designs that prioritize the reliability of the power supply section.
