Description

Precision socket compatible with Western Electric 4-pin pipes

This product is a UV-4P standard tube socket that is compatible with Western Electric's initial 4-pin vacuum tubes. Compatible with vintage pipes such as WE101, WE102, WE104, WE205, etc., and accurately follows the standard UV layout with a mounting hole diameter of 30mmφ and screw spacing of 38.2mm. The height on the dimensional drawing is 12 mm, making it a low-profile design that can be used in compact chassis configurations. The insertion direction is specified, so please pay attention to the orientation when installing.

High retention structure and stable operation that eliminates looseness

The socket body is made of fluororesin orCompriteIt is machined and shaped, and has a structure that securely fixes a round machined pin. This design completely eliminates looseness when the vacuum tube is installed, and suppresses poor contact and sound quality deterioration due to vibration. Especially in early WE tubes that handle minute signals, stable holding power greatly affects the purity of sound, and this socket has been designed with this point in mind.

Highly insulated body and reliable contact material

The fluororesin (tetrafluoroethylene) used for the body material boasts the highest level of electrical insulation and extremely low dielectric constant of any solid material, and maintains stable characteristics even in high voltage environments. It also has excellent heat resistance and can be used with confidence even during long-term operation of vacuum tube amplifiers. Adopted according to specificationsCompriteis also a material with excellent mechanical strength and acoustic stability.

High quality contact with phosphor bronze pins and gold plating

The socket pin uses phosphor bronze, which has excellent strength and spring properties, and maintains stable contact pressure over a long period of time. Additionally, thick gold plating is applied on top of the base treatment to eliminate magnetism, reducing contact resistance and increasing durability. The consideration given to transmitting minute signal changes without loss supports the transparency and reliability of sound.
