[Boatanchors] Type 84 and 6Z4 tubes information needed

In the process of trying to see if my new WW II Japanese vibrator power
supply was working, I got a replacement tube. The original Japanse
tubewas a KY 84A which is supposed to be a US Type 84.
I got a RCA tube labeled 84 and 6Z4. The power supply indicated a 12
volt filament but isn"t a 6Z4 a 6 volt filament? I looked in the RCA
Receiving tube manual and found nothing on either Type 84 or 6Z4.

Can anybody point me to the information on the Type 84 and 6Z4 tubes?

Thanks,

Bill Howard
