Chatham JAN 5R4WGA Rectifier tubes, Part Number 5960-262-1703 Date Code 1955 NOS in Box

  This Tube and all others I sell, have been tested on a B&K Dyna-Quik Model 700 Dynamic Mutual Conductance Tube Tester and tests at or close to a NOS full Emission /Tube.

Key Details
  • Year produced: 1967 (date code 1-55 corresponds to 1955 production; on these 1950s military-spec tubes).
     
     
  • These are ruggedized "potato masher" style JAN military rectifiers (higher voltage ratings, robust construction with features like black plates, hanging/suspended filaments, and often dual getters). They were built for demanding applications like military electronics and high-reliability power supplies. The WGB variant offers improved specs over standard 5R4 types.
