That sockets are'nt really 6C33C sockets, they are for the samller 6C41C or the GMI-6 (thats what I use in this sockets).
The 4 metallic blades around the mounting holes are the rest of 4 blade springs that can hold the tubes in the sockets.
The sockets are stinking for a while whe they go hot. Don't use them
for the 6C33C! I don't think, that the contacts can hold up the
heather current.

I've attached a photo from my Mono's whit the springs on the sockets still intact. (14 Watts push pull Tetrode :-) )

Regards,

Holm
