The original tube socket is made by machining fluororesin and fixing the pins through round cutting machining. This eliminates play and ensures the vacuum tube is securely held, preventing sound degradation due to vibrations. It also has excellent insulation properties, making it a key component in building vacuum tube amplifiers.
Materials Used:
Fluororesin:: Officially called polytetrafluoroethylene, it has the highest electrical insulation and dielectric constant among all solids. It also has excellent temperature resistance.
Phosphor Bronze:: Used for the pins of most tube sockets (except L series). It has high strength, excellent springiness, and maintains stable contact.
Gold Plating:: Most socket pins are gold-plated thickly over a non-magnetic base material (except L series). Magnetic materials are minimized as much as possible in the plating.
