Ron;
I have similar problems with the octal sockets used in many Electrohome built sets of the 1940s, but with those the phenolic can take the heat well enough, it's the tie points that like to snap off when you look at them the wrong way. So I am going to be replacing these cheap wafer sockets with some surplus Iron Curtain octal sockets, so these Electrohome sets will have some MIL spec Marxist interlopers installed in their holes.

Arran
