finally I found something about how MUCH tension, 800-1000 lbs. Yikes, needless to say I will be very very protected before trying this.

I would like to try this on a dud I have, apply the tension band 1st then remove the bonded CRT. on a 23v
Explain more please?
Are you trying to apply a band to a CRT that normally didn't use one? This sounds very dangerous to me, as I expect the banded CRTs were designed specifically to take the compression forces evenly so as to be strengthened. If they took the force incorrectly, they could be MORE likely to implode.
