pdow Posted May 24, 2016 Share Posted May 24, 2016 i have 2 that are relatively unused and both have a little wiggle at the base/glass junction. the base just wiggles a very little as they are being put in. the receptical is slightly recessed within the amp so one must remove and insert invariably by push or pull on glass. is this unusual for sovtek or a common prob with tight fitting tubes in apps were they are recessed in the amp. amp is cj mv-60se.... tubes look and work good otherwise. thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tube fanatic Posted May 25, 2016 Share Posted May 25, 2016 This is not an unusual problem. Get some high temperature adhesive such as what is used on oven door glass and run a thin bead around the glass where it meets the base. Be sure the adhesive is rated for at least 500 deg. F in case you ever have to use it on the output tubes as well. Maynard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
