E26 - Medium base Lamp Socket
When restoring older lighting it is best to replace both socket and lamp cord. | Quality Sockets for Quality RestorationsMore Brass Sockets |
Turn Knob Lamp Sockets are a quality option for lamp restoration. The simple clockwise motion of the turn knob switch allows for easy on/off control. Replace the knob with a decorative key-turn for added appeal. The wire easily exits through the socket base.
The socket body is stamped brass, providing superior durability and a long-lasting quality appearance. Unlike brass-plated or brass-guilt sockets, it does not become dull or washed-out over time.
The UNO threads at light bulb-end of socket, allow a 1-1/4" threaded center ring to directly screw onto socket. While this socket is compatible with most bridge lamp shades, there may be an occasional incompatibility between shade and socket due to slight variations in threads.
Before making any changes to electrical fixtures and/or lamps:
- Disconnect plug/wire from the electrical source.
- Turning lamp off will not protect you from electric shock.
- If you are unsure how to safely proceed contact a licensed electrician.
