ATTENTION!!!
There are four spacers to set the correct distance from tube's surface to the c-element.

I think they are there less for the correct tube spacing, as they are to prevent the tubes from imploding. If the glass sits on the metal, there's no room for expansion, and the tube shatters. I've had that happen before to me with one of the first tubes I put into a Barco 1209 housing long ago, and I've seen it a couple of other times as well.
