Silicone - Yoke Trimming magnet
The silicon filler must be rated for electrical. If it is acidec, it
will damage the yoke. We use GC contact cement that is electricaly rated. Jerry Greenberg http://www.zoom-one.com -- "DG" wrote in message hlink.net... I have 2 trimming magnets loose in my yoke and was wondering if could use "GE silicone II (clear)" (has a temp range of 400F), to fill inside the yoke casing to keep the magnets in place? does the inside of the yoke go over 400 degress? will it be a fired hazard? the GE Silicone II wont corrode the coating off the coppers wires inside the yoke? can i just take the trimming magnets out? Thanks, DG |

Ge silicone II should be ideal for this. If any part of the yoke gets anywhere near 400 deg you've got much more to worry about than a little silicone catching on fire. The windings and plastic housing would be destroyed far below that temp, not to mention that it would probably break the CRT neck. The silicone should be much less flammable than the plastic parts of the yoke anyway. -- Andy Cuffe |
