Teccon Mag Head Product Guide?

[Ryan Gallagher]

Does anyone have an old Teccon catalog or a link to one with part numbers that references the various mag head cluster mounting hardware as it pertains to the sound head models/styles? Particular 6-Track 70mm clusters.

I'm trying to ID this Teccon p/n 72600 mounting assembly:

I know my Century JJ has a Teccon 29800 p/n installed. But i've also read the heads themselves are the same and just the mounts vary. Our other unit has an Ampex 6-track cluster installed, so I'm doubtful that mount would support a teccon head as is without the whole mounting assembly, but that assumption could be wrong?

Visually comparing this mount photographed does not appear to be the Century/Ampex compatible one? But which is it?

I guess more specifically, is this 72600 Teccon reader assembly going to contain an identical 6-track Teccon head to the 29800 Century assembly?, and could be kept as spares assuming we got our mounting hardware sorted out away from the Ampex unit?

Getting the right mounting hardware would no doubt involve sourcing a used Teccon century assembly. Then it is just a question if continuing with mis-matched mileage used ones, or favoring the new heads from this assembly.
