Default Re: TO-5 chassis mount heatsink?

I used to service a lot of Neve's professional audio kit and there was a strange affinity for the heat-sinked TO5 approach- it struck me as an expensive and ineffective way to transfer heat from die to metalwork when plastic package power devices were available. I've checked for threaded cups, alumina washers etc but I obviously decided they were'nt mainstream enough to hang onto. Sorry.
