Can a 5z4 tube be a metal bottle?


I did a thread on some tubes unfamiliar to me and recieved great info. The 5z4 rectifier seems to come in a metal and glass bottle from what I have seen thus far. I also wanted to know if the GZ30 tube would sub for the 5Z4. As always enjoy the music.

Wow Rodman99999 nice links. I don't know the current brand of rectifier tube in the pre as of yet but if it's not a Mullard or GE,RCA I mentioned it's outa of there. The OD3 you advised will be ordered shortly. Thanks again : )
