I don't recall significant differences between Airdux and B&W other than 
the color of the box. I still have some of both. And they were made by 
melting a hot wire into the plastic, most likely NOT nylon, delrin, or 
polycarbonate (Lexan) more likely polystyrene because of its better RF 
characteristics at the cost of temperature sensitivity. I'm sure I have 
catalogs for each.
