The TO-3 chassis-mount socket, part number 4601, features a .090 inch boss height and is designed for use with TO-3 transistors. It has a phenolic base and brass contacts with tin plating, and includes a steel collector plate with tin plating. The socket provides complete electrical isolation of solder tab connections and is rated for 5 amps DC continuous and 15 amps DC intermittent. Two 6-32 thread mounting holes are integral to the design, along with insulating shoulders for lead isolation. The part accommodates transistor leads with a .125 inch diameter hole for each lead.
Part Number: 4601
Socket and transistor are assembled to chassis at same time, using the minimum amount of hardware. Top molded boss ensure the transistor leads will be isolated from the chassis. Various boss heights available to accommodate different chassis thicknesses.
Various molded boss heights. The socket is held underneath the chassis and the semiconductor is inserted into the contacts of the socket holding the assembly in position. To complete the mounting, use 6-20 screws to engage the formed holes in the collector plate.
