The original tube socket is made by machining fluororesin and securing the pins through round cutting, ensuring there is no looseness, so the vacuum tube is held firmly. This prevents sound degradation caused by vibration. Additionally, the excellent insulation of fluororesin makes it a key part in building vacuum tube amplifiers.
Material Descriptions
Fluororesin:Officially called polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), it has the highest electrical insulation and dielectric constant among all solids. It also has excellent temperature resistance.
Phosphor Bronze:Used for most tube socket pins (except the L series). It has high strength, excellent springiness, and maintains stable contact.
Gold Plating:Applied to most socket pins over a non-magnetic base material, with thick gold plating for reliability (except the L series). Magnetic materials are minimized in the plating.
