Compared to Teflon, G-10 epoxy-fiberglass tubing, is stronger, easier to 
work with, and it won't cold-flow under pressure.  In a choke fire, 
Teflon makes unpleasant phosgene gas.  A souce of G-10 and G-11 tubing is 
listed in building chokes section of *Amplifiers*, (on myWeb site).  It 
is not a bad idea to check the choke with a dipmeter, after it is wired 
in, before "firing up" the amplifier.  //  More L is not always better.
