Default Capacitor query

Hi all,

I am currently restoring a Hacker RV20 and have noticed a large numer of the depicted capacitors as decouplers. To me they look like ceramic types and I imagine they should be OK.

Can anybody verify this. Any other comments gratefully received.

Thanks Bill for clarifying that.

Is the form and size of these capacitors generic or is it proprietary to one particular manufacturer?

They are tubular ceramics. Similar ones were made by various makers.
