Abstract
A tension mask color cathode ray tube includes a glass faceplate having on its inner surface a centrally disposed, rectangular screening area, and on opposed sides thereof a non-metal shadow mask support structure of predetermined Q-height. The mask support structure has a metal element embedded in the apex of the structure. The apex of the structure and the metal element are ground to define a surface for receiving a tensed foil shadow mask. The surface contains a metal portion to which the mask may be welded, and a non-metal portion which supports the metal portion.
