Machined Solid Teflon® (virgin PTFE) Chimney
|
I
can now provide you a machined solid Teflon®
(virgin PTFE) Chimney for your GS-35B project.
Teflon
is not cheap but this is NOT a cheap chimney. This
is the REAL DEAL and, without a doubt, the best material
available for the chimney in your amplifier project. It has the
best resistance to RF fields and high voltages. It withstands temperatures
up to 500 degrees F; far above any temperature you will encounter
in a properly operating amp. This Teflon® Chimney
is not available from any other source. There is
no other solid Teflon® Chimney available for the
GS-35B anywhere in the world.
This
is exactly what you will want to use for resisting high temperatures,
extremely high voltages and RF fields up to and beyond the limits
of the GS-35B under ALL operating conditions and frequencies.
This
Teflon Chimney® is
approximately 1-1/2"H x 4"(ID) x 5"(OD) and is carefully
machined to insure that it will fit the bottom of the GS-35B anode
cooler.
Sizes are approximate due to the availability of material. I
make this chimney specifically for this socket and the GS-35B.
This
Teflon® Chimney can be used with other socket
arrangements as long as your grid plate is recessed one inch below
the chassis plate or you shim up the bottom of the Teflon®
Chimney. If
you need one for a different arrangement or size, please contact
me for a quote.
The chimney alone weighs 15 ounces and the shipping weight is 1
lb. 5 oz.

NOTE:
This chimney will work with the tube socket built by Tom Adams,
WB8WJU (also supplied by Tom's Tubes). If you have mounted his socket
using round head screws, you can either swap them with flat head
screws or file a notch in the bottom edge of the chimney to clear
the screw head.
