Leviton Mfg Co 053-06098-0PG Push-thru Lamp Socket 660W 250V

Product Description

The LEVITON MFG CO 053-06098-0PG is a phenolic interior lamp socket designed for high-heat applications where durability and reliable switching are required. The socket features high-heat push-buttons for on/off switching without a separate switch device. A 1/8-inch tapped bushing with a set screw secures the socket to a fixture stem. The polished gilt brass finish suits decorative and commercial fixture work. Rated at 660 watts and 250 volts, this socket handles most standard incandescent and medium-base lamp loads. UL listed. Electricians and fixture technicians install this component in pendant, table lamp, and decorative luminaire applications.

This socket is suited for residential and light commercial lighting fixture installations where a medium-base push-thru switching socket is required. The phenolic body resists heat generated by higher-wattage incandescent lamps. The push-thru design eliminates the need for a separate in-line switch, making it a common choice for lamp repair, fixture replacement, and OEM lighting assembly work. Sold in a package quantity of 10 units, making it practical for shop stock or multi-fixture jobs.
