ZIN70 Nixie Tube — Silver Anodised Base & Z568M Pinout for Modern Industrial Designs
This version uses a silver anodised aluminium base, giving the tube a clean, technical and industrial look that pairs perfectly with brushed steel, aluminium, glass and minimalist enclosures. It’s ideal for designers who want a cool, laboratory or studio aesthetic rather than a vintage brass/gold style.
The tube is equipped with a round Z568M-compatible pinout (only this pinout is available), so it can be plugged into standard Z568M sockets and driver boards used for classic giant Nixie tubes.
With an impressive ≈70 mm digit height, a 150 mm glass bulb height and ≈58 mm diameter, the ZIN70 delivers a bold orange glow that dominates desks, racks, studios, control panels and public spaces.
Each tube is handmade in Ukraine from annealed glass and stainless-steel internals. This listing includes the tube only; you will need an appropriate high-voltage Nixie driver and power supply designed for Z568M tubes.
Technical Specifications
ZIN70 Nixie Tube — Handling & Installation (Silver Base, Z568M Pinout)
• Always switch off and disconnect the high-voltage power supply before inserting or removing the tube.
• Hold the tube only by the metal base, never by the glass envelope.
• Align the pins precisely with your Z568M socket and press straight down without twisting the glass.
• Use only proper Z568M-compatible Nixie drivers with appropriate voltage/current for giant tubes.
• Avoid mechanical shocks and sudden temperature changes; the annealed glass is reinforced but still fragile.
This tube is supplied without a socket, driver or power supply. It is intended for experienced builders, designers and technicians working with high-voltage Nixie electronics.
Design, Technology & Use Cases
Design & Materials
The ZIN70 combines a tall cylindrical annealed glass bulb with a silver anodised aluminium base. The cool metallic finish emphasises a modern, technical character — perfect for laboratory-style, studio and industrial-inspired builds.
Technology & Compatibility
Operating as a cold-cathode neon glow display, this ZIN70 version is built with the round Z568M pinout only. It integrates easily into existing Z568M-based drivers and sockets commonly used for giant Nixie tubes.
Applications
Ideal for oversized Nixie clocks, technical showpieces, rack-mounted clock systems, control-room décor, galleries and any environment where a strong industrial neon accent is desired.
Care & Maintenance
Clean gently using a dry microfiber cloth only. Do not use liquids, aggressive chemicals or abrasive materials. Ensure your enclosure provides enough clearance for the full height (≈150 mm) and diameter (≈58 mm), plus ventilation space.
In the Box
