I don't know about that, the Predicta tube had a very short neck and an odd heater voltage, I think it was engineered specifically for the Predicta.
There are other tubes that will work in the Predicta but they have a standard 6.3v heater and a longer neck, you have to put spacers on the rear cover to accommodate them.
The 17" Predicta and the Philco Seventeener (some of them) share a common tube, also short necked and odd heater.
