What do you call those 1/4 jack sockets with the end that screws in?

...you know the ones I mean? They look like the usual black plastic PCB mounting ones with 4 or 6 legs, but instead of having a threaded part sticking out for the locking nut to screw onto, they have a threaded tube that screws into the body. The advantage of this style is that they can be PCB mounted and you can still get the PCB in the box.

If anyone knows what they're known as, who manufactures them, or where I could get some, I'd appreciate it.

Thanks!

They are made by Neutrik and others.

Stereo:

Similar jack with slightly different footprint and size:

If you are an Eagle user...there are packages for the first two.

One other thing of note: if you can only source the stereo version but want mono, the middle pin assembly can be taken out without too much trouble.
I just designed a new fuzz circuit! It almost sounds a little different than the last fifty fuzz circuits I designed! ;)

Not sure if this is what you need, Tom (looks similar to what the other guys have posted).  The datasheet wasn't spilling the beans.  You might give Rapid a shout?

I used to really be with it!  That is, until they changed what "it" is.  Now, I can't find it.  And, I'm scared!  --  Homer Simpson's dad

Please at least have 1 forum post before sending me a PM demanding something.

Ah ha!  These are the part numbers for the ones I linked to at Rapid.  Thanks Mick.

I've always known them as Rean, and called them just plain weird. that nut with a bush with a thread freaks me out.
