I have always been leary of asbestos, better safe than sorry. I have had it in 3 sets, use a mask, mist iwth a little water, remove staples, bag and give to friend who is plumber, he gets rid of asbestos at a Transfer Station aka dump. 

Modern caps should let the whole thing run cooler, just leave the bottom of cas plain wood. All sets wre RCA's.
