So sorry, I was convinced it was tantalum because of the shape of the body,
but when I checked for images of tantalum and ceramics I realised it is
ceramic, although I have to say the shapes are fairly similar and I thought
you could use the shape to identify them. So, yes, it probably is ceramic
then.
Regards
Rob
