Question of triple can capacitors

[jtrouter]

My next radio project is a Robyn T240d, For those who do not know what it is its a tube CB made in the 70's and one
of many radios built on the Panasonic chassis. They all contain a large triple capacitor with 3 47uf @350volts in one can.
I know the cheap way is just to use 3 47uf caps and wire them up. However i do not want any of my collection of these
radios to look like this. I did find a couple of choices that might work i found a triple can of 50uf or a triple can of 40uf.
I would think that the 50uf would be ok to use? and if not i will just cut the can carefully and put 3 47uf caps into the
can and call it good. So you think the 50uf would work? its within 10% tolerance? Thank you for reading and hope to
hear from you.

No problem, within specifications and as long voltage is the same use it.

As @Justme stated, as long as the voltage rating is there, you're good to go. 90+% of caps will not be their stated uf anyway.

Thanks both of you, sorry I was out sick the last week and did not turn on the computer the whole time.

I always keep "Hayseed Hamfest" in mind.

They have a number of cap options ready to go... and if you have a special need they might be able to help.
