Hi John,
Is there some reason you don't want the graphites?  I have found them extremely rugged -- the Eimacs I had literally fell apart.  I've been abusing mine (RF Parts Brand -- Taylors, I believe) in my Henry 3K-A fairly regularly over approximately 3 years now, and they simply keep on making power.  I've had them very bright orange on nice loooonngggg AM round-tables, been through a few contests, and I would definitely buy them again.  They will still do about 2kW output easily.
 
Joe, N3JI

All I can find anymore are 3-500ZG for sale. Is anyone making stamped 
plate 3-500Z like Eimac used to, with the vertical fins? I believe 
that the ZG have the horizonal anode fins, with graphite anode.
