I have a 40/40uf electrolytic can cap, Can I use this , and what should I do with the unused 40uf's ?

You can just leave the unused sections as they are and use the two sections if you'd like. You can also go the route of using two single section caps and leaving the bad can in there for aesthetic purposes.
I am restoring a 1948 Stewart Warner table radio. I've "re-caped" several antique radios before but never had to replace a multi-cap can before. The unit is 20-40 uf. To save costs I would like to use a 22 and 47 uf axial caps. My question is: are the two (one each for each cap) connector tabs on the cap can the ground? This radio has a jumper wire from that connector to the terminal on the on/off switch opposite the terminal that the power cord connects to. I can see how these connections could look a little unorthadox, but electrically, is my theory sound? Thank you for your time and help. Kenon ([email protected])

It is hard to say that this will work. Yet, as long as you understand that the negative lead on a axial cap is ground and the metal cap of a can cap is the ground, then I think you are on the right track.

How can these multi-section can capacitors be reliable with a tolerance of +50%. Meaning if I bought a a 30/30 uf 450V these cap's could actually measure 45uf. Please explain.

Electrolytics can have a fairly wide tolerance especially with this vintage type of can cap. I spoke to manufacturing and was informed that these are made to the exact specs of the Mallory can caps on Mallory equipment so they will reflect the same tolerances as the original. The capacitance has a higher plus tolerance but you will notice the minus tolerance is much tighter. With that said I was informed that you should never see anything as high as +50% with the average being around 2-3mf over as our manufacturing methods are actually tighter than the originals.
Product Reviews
Well made capacitor. I buy them whenever Ican
Very well done !! A"must" to restore the classic audio hi-fi sets , like Marantz & , Marantz Consollette and so !!!
Installed the new Cap Can I ordered, and my 1962 Fisher 100B Tuner is much improved. Sounds like Brand New

Excellent, fit just like the originals
Decent product, but few can-style tab chassis-mount caps are available anymore. I have seen a few fail after about 6-7 years.
Great replacement for an Dynaco FM3
I decided to restore my old Heathkit SB301 receiver. The caps were in various stages of decay so I decided to change all of the electrolytic caps. The metal can twist/lock caps are virtually impossible to find any more but Antique Electronic Supply had them. I replaced the 100/40/40/40 uf unit -- that was original equipment -- with a 40/40/40/40 uf unit supplemented by an additional 100 uf axial mount cap. The SB301 now works great -- just like when it was when I bought it new and put it together back in the 1967 time frame. 73 Roger K5RKS
CE Mfg are excellent multi section capacitor cans. Now if they only made multi section capacitor cans for vintage preamps like McIntosh, Fisher, Scott, etc., then it would be great to restore them to original.
