Default tube sockets

Hi,

Are tube sockets standardized? If so, does anyone know of a site that has specifications for the different type of sockets?

Tks for the help.

Other than pin spacings and clearance holes for evacuation nipples, no, the blasted things aren't standardized

I have four 12-pin compactron sockets for example, all different diameters. Same with my 9-pin minatures.

The 7-pin minatures I have all seem to be 5/8" hole though.

Greenlee must have made a bundle back in the day.....
