Can stabilant 22 be used for power cords and vacuum tubes?

DO NOT use any type of contact treatment on power tube pins or tube sockets!

I’ve used it on everything. Common sense needs to be observed. Such as, don’t stick something wet into a socket.

Ozzy:

“Such as, don’t stick something wet into a socket.”

What a buzz kill.

Water is not a good conductor of electricity. Stabilant 22 on the other hand is. That’s why Deoxit for example is safe to use on tube pins. That’s also why commercial aircraft use it on communications electronics. One must obviously ensure not to allow Stabilant 22 to get onto the surface of the tube sockets where it could migrate to another pin. Wipe off any excess before inserting treated tube.

30 years ago this same product then known as Tweek was used and sold in a store I ran. Great stuff for sure . Went away and came back in the same form. Glad it did.Tom
