VINTAGE RADIO VALVES BASES
THE UK’s LEADING VINTAGE RADIO REPAIR AND RESTORATION CENTRE


USE THE CHART BELOW TO IDENTIFY VALVE BASES

VINTAGE RADIO VALVE TUBE BASES
Pin numbers are viewed from the valve base

I will be adding more valve information here soon.

PLEASE NOTE
Although I have thousands of valves in stock, I've been selling far too many over the years.
Valves are becoming expensive and sometimes difficult to find.
So, I am now keeping the valves I have for vintage radio repairs and restorations.


I NO LONGER SELL VALVES.
