You already got an answer to the question whether you can remove the sleeve (yes), so accept that and move on. Frankly, I'd just order better-fitting SMD MLCC (you're not giving technical reason not to), as the price of those is bound to be lower than that of the effort of stripping off the sleeves. SMD 0805 10µF 25V caps could be soldered onto the lead holes instead of your bulky electrolytics, and would be cheap, easier to mount than it would be to strip off the sleeve and a lot smaller. And they are readily available everywhere | |
