You're building a panel, a pedalboard, or an amp faceplate and need a mono jack that actually stays put. This Jaycar 6.5mm (1/4 inch) chassis socket has a metal shell, a plug-locking feature so your cable doesn't yank free mid-set, and it mates with both mono and stereo phono plugs. Unswitched open circuit — signal passes straight through when the plug is in. Solder it in, wire the rest, done
