 From a 1962 B&W advert:  "This unit (800) is ideal for parallel or 
series fed high power final amplifier circuits.  It is used for 
operation in the amateur bands--80 through 10 meters inclusive.  Winding 
is on a high quality grooved steatite form, threaded on both ends, for 
mounting with a 1/4"-#20 screw.  Rating is 2500VDC at 500 Ma.  Size 6" x 
  3/4" in diameter.  Shipping weight 1 lb."

Hope this helps.  For what it's worth, I've put considerably higher 
voltage and current on and through an 800 with no ill effects.  Your 
mileage may vary.
