[Amps] LK500ZB (2 x 3-500Z), most likely cause

[Carl Clawson]

What do you know about their construction? Is it some kind of teflon/ceramic
combination? I'm a bit puzzled by the presence of the temperature code,
which I associate with ceramics. But I suppose any type of cap could be
described by a similar temperature code. I just haven't run across it
before, and haven't been able to find any information on this type of cap.

Does Teflon get used in doorknob caps also?
