Are you looking for blanks, or something specific? How many do you need?

Thanks,

I have some custom chassis for 18W/36W amps, but they're made of 2mm aluminum. That does have an octal socket version. You can see them here: viewtopic.php?f=2&t=25924

Nice, thank you. I found some steel blanks on eBay that look like they will work.

If you just want a blank, check Mojotone's blank 18W chassis.
