Could this have been used in other RCA early color CRT’s? Any old dead CRT’s out there with this part? A search of the internet failed to find one.

An attempt to generate this part was made a dozen years ago. It failed, however, because the magnetic field was much too weak.
Notice also, that there is a screwdriver slot at each end. This is so the item can be removed and inserted backwards to utilize the opposite magnetic pole if and when needed.
Good luck if you try to manufacture them. Donor sets are a protentional source; I had been fortunate to have located some that way.
