Yup. The joints labeled F in the diagram are the ones I've used in converting six tubas so far. The oldest of those conversions is now about 15 years old, and it still works as well as it did new.

My old Sanders had an upgraded ball linkage that was much lighter than this, using 2-56 rod and white plastic snap-on sockets. Very gooey feeling, it seemed to me. I replaced them.
