Shure R131 Cartridge for 527A, 527B
Product Overview
The Shure R131 is a direct replacement cartridge for Shure Model 527A and 527B dynamic communications microphones. It restores original factory audio performance in voice communication applications, including dispatch intercom systems, push-to-talk stations, and public address installations. This genuine OEM part enables service technicians to repair in-field units without requiring a full microphone replacement.
Product Description
Built as an exact-fit replacement for the 527A and 527B cartridge assembly, the R131 supports cost-effective maintenance programs for facilities that operate fleets of Shure communications microphones. Installation follows the standard cartridge procedure outlined in the Shure 527B user guide, requiring basic soldering tools and the lead wire connections specified by the original factory build. The R131 is the correct part number to specify when ordering maintenance spares or scheduling preventive service on these microphone models. For procurement teams and AV service contractors, stocking the R131 reduces downtime on voice communication systems that rely on the 527-series platform.
