RE: Tube emitting tone

For tubes OTHER than ouput, which I suspect tend to run hotter, you don't need a brand name.
Find a place that sells Orings.....online will do.
Buy a high-temp o-ring. Red Silicon is goo to hotter than low level tubes will get......
you'll need diameter.....which can be gotten with a PIECE OF STRING and a ruler......easy calcuation involving PI.
I linked a SQUARE cross section ring, which should have MORE bearing area on the tube.
It comes in BUNA and SILICON......The Silicon is GOOD to over 400f.......
