I am replacing capacitors in an Airzone 1152A radio and I am looking for component suppliers of 400v bipolar capacitors. I live in Lismore Northern NSW Australia.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

The latest issue of HRSA Radiowaves magazine has an ad for various bipolar caps rated at 500 & 630V:

Seeing that you have also posted elswhere.

You can also use EVATCO. As you look like needing two 10μF 500V Axial Electrolytics (I would suggest Sprague Atom if you want really good filtering, but they are not exactly cheap) and a 10μF of around 40V do not go too high with voltage rating.

The yellow axials are better in my opinion than the red Greencaps, or similar, as the leads of the latter are too short. 630VDC.not 400V ...too low.
