This kit is intended as an easy way to replace old multi-section can capacitors around 1-3/8″ diameter (approx. 35 mm) with 46 mm CTC mounting hole spacing. These cans were often used in vintage audio and radio equipment, such as McIntosh, Marantz, Heathkit, and Dynaco.

The capacitor board fits up to four 5 mm lead spacing, 12.5 mm diameter radial capacitors. An alternate version of this kit designed for larger 7.5 mm lead spacing, 16 mm diameter capacitors is also available.

The negative leads of all capacitors are connected to a thick outer copper ring and two plated mounting holes. This means the negatives will be tied to chassis ground by default. If you need to isolate this board from chassis, take a look at our isolation kit.

Includes one capacitor mounting board, one spacer board, 5 wiring turrets, a mounting hardware kit, and a link to installation instructions. Capacitors are not included. In order to save on paper and toner, we are now including a link to a PDF copy of the installation guide. If you would prefer a hard copy, please let us know and we’d be happy to accommodate.

Based on the IPC-2221B standard, this kit is not to be installed in circuits that will see peak voltages greater than 600 V.
