Abstract
A molded, two-part lamp base receives a press seal of a lamp. Conductor wires from the lamp envelope are folded onto planar regions of the base. A second annular portion of the base is slid along a reduced dimensional region of the first part of the base member to properly position and locate the conductor wires. Once the second portion abuts a shoulder of the first portion, the separate portions of the two part base assembly are fused together to form an integral unit and lock the terminal ends of the conductor wires in place.
