Medium-base porcelain sockets

The Midwest Fastener Corp 77842 pack supplies three medium-base porcelain sockets, each fitted with a mounting bracket. They are intended for residential or light-commercial wiring jobs where a durable, heat-resistant lampholder is required.

Porcelain body with mounting bracket

The critical specification is the porcelain insulator combined with an integrated mounting bracket, which provides both high temperature resistance and a secure fixing point for surface-mounted fixtures.

Heat resistance and power handling

Porcelain construction tolerates the heat generated by standard incandescent and compatible LED lamps without deforming. The sockets carry only the current drawn by the installed lamp, so power consumption and thermal output depend entirely on the bulb selected.

Questions about this item

What does "medium base" mean for the bulbs I can use?

Medium base is the common screw-in size for general-purpose household bulbs, so these sockets accept standard incandescent, LED and CFL lamps.

What voltage and current limits apply to the porcelain sockets?

The porcelain sockets are rated for standard household voltage and typical bulb wattages; they do not carry a separate amp or volt listing in the supplied data.

How do the mounting brackets attach to a surface?

Each bracket has pre-drilled holes for screws or bolts, letting you secure the socket to a junction box, panel or flat surface.
