The General Radio 1404-B Reference Standard Capacitor were introduced in Catalog S (1965) and remained available through Catalog 1978.

The Type 1404-B capacitor is designed as primary reference standards of capacitance with which working standards can be compared. The capacitor plates are constructed of Invar and assembled in a sealed container with dry nitrogen under pressure slightly above atmospheric. This type of construction is less affected by external atmospheric conditions making increased stability. Each capacitor is shipped with a calibration certificate with specifications for that particular instrument.
