Normal 0 false false false EN-US X-NONE X-NONE MicrosoftInternetExplorer4 There are several products containing asbestos in this catalog. Many of the vehicles/engines listed (but NOT all) specify a type of asbestos gasket. Many of the gaskets were used on buses, farm equipment, trucks, tractors, trailers, construction vehicles, off road machinery, marine engines and industrial engine gaskets. Victocor - "By a unique process two layers of a high density rubber/asbestos sheet known as Asbestospac are combined with a perforated metal core..." Victopac - Compressed Asbestos Sheets Brake Lining Shim Stock - "...same as Victopac, a compressed asbestos sheet packing." Asbestos Wire-Woven Packing Asbestos Wick Packing Asbestos Water Pump Packing Asbestos Millboard Corbestos – "....the material is a metal core-supported construction using specially treated asbestos sheets." Special note: There is a one page instruction guide for Antique Gaskets "Made" Easy! (see photo) In this guide it tells how to make a custom gasket from a sheet of Corbestos material. From the instructions, "Saw gasket outline using standard band saw. It may also be necessary to drill for adequate saw clearance and smaller openings." This drilling and sawing could have potentially released asbestos fibers into the air which in turn could have been inhaled into someone's lungs. Although the catalog says to use a band saw it was much more likely that a reciprocating saw or jig saw was used. People who could have been exposed to these asbestos containing products include automotive/engine mechanics as well as the do-it-yourself-ers that worked out of their own garage, home or barn. Many farmers made repairs to their machinery because they could not afford to pay a mechanic so it's possible farmers could have been exposed to asbestos this way. Vehicular Engine Models of note:Buda, Chevrolet-Truck, GMC-Truck, Chrysler-Industrial, Deere (John Deere), Dodge, Ford, GMC, International-Truck, Mack, Minneapolis-Moline, Waukesha, and more! Each engine manufacturer listed has index numbers or codes for the various gasket or seal. For example the suffixes used on Cylinder Head Gaskets indicates the type of optional materials available. The following is a breakdown on the definition of the suffixes that is listed in the front of the book: C - Copper & AsbestosS - Steel & AsbestosBS - Braided SteelK - Metal Core Composition ...(Corbetos - see note #1 below)TC- Heavy Duty Metal Core Composition...... (Victocor see note #1 below)VC - Heavy Duty Metal Core Composition..... (Victocor see note #1 below) Example: Looking at the photo for Deere Tractor model 4010, the cylinder head gasket had an index number 3214VC, which based on the suffix letter VC is a Victocor gasket. This gasket was used on models from 1961 to 1964 as an O.E. equivalent, meaning that tractor came with an asbestos gasket from the factory. Note #1 - Based on a comparison with a 1959 Victor Gasket Guide (currently listed under my items for sale) suffix K corresponds to Corbestos - "Treated asbestos combined to both sides of a perforated steel sheet and surface coated." and suffixes TC & VC correspond to Victocor - "Special combination of victoprene and asbestos clamped to a steel insert..." Dana Corporation was manufacturing asbestos containing products in 1970 well after the deleterious effects of asbestos exposure were known and established in the 1960's!!!
