ZIN70 Nixie Tube — Silver Anodised Base & Z568M Pinout for Modern Industrial Designs
This version uses a silver anodised aluminium base, giving the tube a clean, technical and industrial look that pairs perfectly with brushed steel, aluminium, glass and minimalist enclosures. It’s ideal for designers who want a cool, laboratory or studio aesthetic rather than a vintage brass/gold style.
The tube is equipped with a round Z568M-compatible pinout (only this pinout is available), so it can be plugged into standard Z568M sockets and driver boards used for classic giant Nixie tubes.
With an impressive ≈70 mm digit height, a 150 mm glass bulb height and ≈58 mm diameter, the ZIN70 delivers a bold orange glow that dominates desks, racks, studios, control panels and public spaces.
Each tube is handmade in Ukraine from annealed glass and stainless-steel internals. This listing includes the tube only; you will need an appropriate high-voltage Nixie driver and power supply designed for Z568M tubes.
Technical Specifications
ZIN70 Nixie Tube — Handling & Installation (Silver Base, Z568M Pinout)
• Always switch off and disconnect the high-voltage power supply before inserting or removing the tube.
• Hold the tube only by the metal base, never by the glass envelope.
• Align the pins precisely with your Z568M socket and press straight down without twisting the glass.
• Use only proper Z568M-compatible Nixie drivers with appropriate voltage/current for giant tubes.
• Avoid mechanical shocks and sudden temperature changes; the annealed glass is reinforced but still fragile.
This tube is supplied without a socket, driver or power supply. It is intended for experienced builders, designers and technicians working with high-voltage Nixie electronics.
Design, Technology & Use Cases
Design & Materials
The ZIN70 combines a tall cylindrical annealed glass bulb with a silver anodised aluminium base. The cool metallic finish emphasises a modern, technical character — perfect for laboratory-style, studio and industrial-inspired builds.
Technology & Compatibility
Operating as a cold-cathode neon glow display, this ZIN70 version is built with the round Z568M pinout only. It integrates easily into existing Z568M-based drivers and sockets commonly used for giant Nixie tubes.
Applications
Ideal for oversized Nixie clocks, technical showpieces, rack-mounted clock systems, control-room décor, galleries and any environment where a strong industrial neon accent is desired.
Care & Maintenance
Clean gently using a dry microfiber cloth only. Do not use liquids, aggressive chemicals or abrasive materials. Ensure your enclosure provides enough clearance for the full height (≈150 mm) and diameter (≈58 mm), plus ventilation space.

Absolutely fantastic! The work that goes into making these fascinates me and so it is brilliant to finally have one now working away gently illuminating the corner of my room. Thank you!
This is an absolutely amazing work of art. Really beautiful design. The packaging and delivery was exceptional. Thanks so much for producing this lovely clock.
Works well and looks super cool. My fiancé really enjoyed this Christmas gift! for reference, the shop got it in the mail within five days or so and shipping to the US took about two and a half weeks. worth it in my book!
The quality of the clock is really high, however I was little disappointed it didn't come with the box and carry case pictured in one of the photos. However I am still happy with the clock it is exactly as in the photos, looks amazing!

Extremely high Quality! This Nixie Tube clock is really a piece of Art! Smooth Transaction and fast delivery to Germany via UPS. Keep in mind that import taxes are due depending on the price. Very good Service and helpful answers via e-mail within hours.
My dad loved his birthday present - easy to set up and use! Worked perfectly and the manual was very good
Fast delivery. Took just 8 working days from purchasing to arrival here in Germany. No delay due to import duty and VAT which UPS allowed me to pay online. Was very well packaged and protected from travel damage. Setup was easy. EU-power adapter included. Looks much better in real life than on the photos. 🙂
My son wanted this for the past 10 years and was ecstatic when he received it. We all can't stop watching it. It was everything and more than expected.
