RESPONSE OF DEFENDANT, ARMSTRONG WORLD INDUSTRIES, INC. TO PLAINTIFFS' FIRST SET OF INTERROGATORIES
Comes now the Defendant, Armstrong World Industries, Inc., and responds to Plaintiff's First Set of Interrogatories as follows:
PRELIMINARY STATEMENT The following responses are based upon facts known to or believed by this Defendant at the time of answer. Because much of the information is sought from many years ago and is therefore difficult or impossible to reconstruct or retrieve, and because of the volume of discovery requests received daily by us,this Defendant reserves the right to amend these responses as and if new or better information becomes available to it, or if errors are discovered. Unless otherwise stated in a response to a specific interrogatory or request, the responses set forth hereunder are limited in time
and place to Plaintiff's allegations of exposure to asbestos
and to those asbestos-containing themal insulation products to
which Plaintiff alleges exposure and those that this Defendant
manufactured and/or sold and the time period after 1940, when
this Defendant expanded in to the thermal insulation
--
contracting business, and before mid-1969, when this Defendant
last sold or manufactured a thermal insulation product
containing asbestos. The responses are from this Defendant's
records and knowledge and not those of its former wholly-owned
subsidiary, Armstrong Contracting & Supply Corporation, which
operated independent of this Defendant. To the extent these
interrogatories or requests call for information beyond the
limitations stated above, an objection is made thereto as
being irrelevant, immaterial, burdensome, oppressive, and/or
not calculated to lead to the discovery of admissible
evidence, and the answers thereto are privileged and/or
protected. Where production of documents is requested,
representative materials are produced where duplicate, similar
or cumulative documents exist, unless otherwise indicated.
1. It is impossible for this Defendant to answer this
interrogatory. This Defendant has been involved in the
asbestos litigation for many years. During the course of said
litigation, its legal representatives have reviewed voluminous
records of itself and others, have conferred with many current
and former employees of this Defendant and others, and have
conferred with legal representatives of others. It has thus
2
become impossible to distinguish sources of information in an accurate and meaningful way.
2. This Defendant is Armstrong World,Inc., incorporated in Pennsylvania with its principal place of business at Liberty and Charlotte Streets, Lancaster, Pennsylvania.
. 3. This Defendant was registered to do business in the State of Texas on October 31, 1984.
4. See answer to Interrogatory No.. 3. 5. Not to our knowledge. See Preliminary Statement. 6. See answer to Interrogatory No. 5. 7. No. 8. Not applicable. See answer to Interrogatory No. 7. 9. Yes. 10. No. 11. Yes. 12. (a)-(d) See Attachment A.
(e) See Attachment C regarding chemical composition, (f) See Attachment B regarding physical appearance. (g) See Attachment D regarding intended use. (h) See Attachment A. 13. Yes, in regard to LT Cork Covering. 14. LT Cork Covering. (a) Patent number: 2,766,231. (b) Date of Patent: January 1, 1957. (c) None to our knowledge. 15. Yes.

16. LT Cork Covering was first manufactured with a kraft paper cover. In 1956, asbestos paper was substituted for the kraft paper for the purpose of creating a more fire_resistant surface. Armaspray originally contained a 6D5 chrysotile asbestos. In July, 1967, A. W. Amosite was substituted, and in January, 1968, S/33/65 asbestos was substituted. The initial asbestos change was due to the increased fiber length, greater wet strength and improved thermal-conductivity of the Amosite. The next change was a result of the discontinuation of supply of A.W. Amosite, the substitution being based upon the supplier's recommendation.
17. Research continues with regard to the persons involved in the design of LT Cork Covering. We believe that W.G. Owens, Senior Research Scientist, and W. H. Yeager, Senior Lab Technician, participated in the design of Armaspray. Owens is currently employed by Armstrong's Research & Development Center, Lancaster, Pennsylvania. Yeager is retired. We have neither records not actual knowledge by which to answer this interrogatory for asbestos-containing products manufactured by others.
18. Process specifications for LT Cork Covering and Armaspray exist. Members of this company's Legal Department have copies.
19. See answer to Interrogatory No. 18. 20. This Defendant objects to the use of the term "to the public" since most sales of asbestos-containing insulation products were made in connections with this company's
4
insulation contracting services. Furthermore, at the time that we manufactured LT Cork Covering and Armaspray, we did not believe that they presented any unique health hazards which general, proper handling would not prevent. Therefore
tests specific to asbestos were conducted. 21. See answer to Interrogatory No. 20. 22. See answer to Interrogatory No. 20. 23. See answer to Interrogatory No. 20. 24. See answer to Interrogatory No. 20. 25. See answer to Interrogatory No. 20. 26. See answer to Interrogatory No. 20. 27. See answer to Interrogatory No. 20. 28. See answer to Interrogatory No. 20. 29. See answer to Interrogatory No. 20. 30. See answer to Interrogatory No. 20. 31. See answer to Interrogatory No. 20. 32. See Attachment F regarding warnings and cautions. 33. See answer to Interrogatory No. 32. 34. This Defendant first received a lawsuit alleging
personal injuries from asbestos-containing insulation productions manufactured and sold by it in 1970.
35. Not applicable. See answer to Interrogatory No. 34 36. Not to our knowledge. 37. Not applicable. See answer to Interrogatory No. 36 38. This Defendant objects to the discovery of such information gathered during the course of and in pursuit of pending litigation for the reason that such information is
5
protected by the attorney work product and attorney/client
privileges.
39. See answer to Interrogatory No. 38.
.
40. Yes.
41. Our attorney, James H. Crosby, is in the process jof
investigating this claim. Any matters not subject to
attorney/client privilege or which is not.an attorney work
product can be viewed in his office during business hours and
upon reasonable notice.
42. Total environment dust level monitoring was tested on
two occasions at a job site at Brunner Island, Pennsylvania.
In November, 1968 and January, 1969, membrane filters were
used to collect dust which was present during the application
of Armaspray, a mineral wool insulation product containing
asbestos manufactured by this Defendant. The samples were
improperly taken and analyzed and the results were therefore
inconclusive. Further tests were not pursued because of the
decision having already been made to no longer manufacture the
product being tested, Armaspray.
43. Not applicable. See answer to Interrogatory No. 42.
44. Both asbestos-containing insulation products
manufactured by this Defendant were produced at the Beaver
Falls Plant, Beaver Falls, Pennsylvania. LT Cork Covering was
manufactured from 1956 to 1959, and Armaspray was manufactured
from 1966 to 1968.
45. LT Cork Covering brochures and Armstrong Industrial
Insulation brochures were prepared by us.
6
46. (a) We have neither records nor actual knowledge by
which to answer this interrogatory.
(b) Members of this Defendant's Legal Department have
copies.
(c) Although we have no records concerning dates of
preparation, we believe the LT Cork Covering brochure was
prepared around 1956 to 1959 and the Armstrong Industrial
Insulations brochure was prepared at various times during the
period when this Defendant had a contract insulation unit.
47. The LT Cork Covering brochure and Armstrong
Industrial Insulation brochure contained instructions for use
and maintenance.
-
48. See answer to Interrogatory No. 46.
49. At this time, investigation and discovery indicates
possible improper use, however, this answer will have to be
supplemented when sufficient information has been obtained.
50. See response to Interrogatory No. 49.
51. In late 1968, this Defendant first became aware of
the likelihood of an ascertainable relationship between the
inhalation of airborne asbestos fibers and adverse health
consequences when George Nickel brought the article "The magic
Mineral" in the New Yorker magazine to the attention of
management employees of Armstrong Cork Company. Prior to that
time, some information came to other employees at different
times which alleged a relationship, but the first awareness of
this Defendant was as stated above. 52. See answer to Interrogatory No. 51.

53. Objection. This interrogatory requires an expert
medical opinion which this Defendant is not equipped to
render.

54. Objection. This interrogatory requires an expert
medical opinion which this Defendant is not equipped to _
render.
55. None to our knowledge.
56. During the period in which we manufactured and/or
sold asbestos-containing insulation products, we did not
employ an industrial hygienist. In 1972, Robert Kilgour was
hired as the first industrial hygienist at Armstrong Cork
Company, Liberty and Charlotte Street, Lancaster,
Pennsylvania, a post which he holds today. The industrial
hygienist monitors health and safety aspects of the
manufacturing facility in order to assist in maintaining
compliance with OSHA and other health regulations.
57. None to our knowledge.
58. Not applicable. See answer to Interrogatory No. 56.
This Defendant has never employed a corporate medical officer
or medical consultant.
59. During the period in which we manufactured and/or
sold asbestos-containing insulation products, we did not, to
our knowledge, subscribe to any such medical periodicals whose
concern was asbestos.
60. This Defendant has a library in Lancaster,
Pennsylvania which contains engineering and manufacturing
8
information. But, to its knowledge, there was no libraryestablished for industrial hygiene, medicine or safety.

61. This Defendant has not been a member of any trade association or organization whose concern was asbestos-containing insulation products during the period in which we manufactured and/or sold asbestos-containing insulation products.
62. Not applicable. See answer to Interrogatory NO. 61. 63. To our knowledge, this Defendant has never subscribed to trade association periodicals. 64. Not applicable. See answer to Interrogatory No. 63. 65. Not to our knowledge during the period when this Defendant manufactured and/or sold asbestos-containing insulation products. 66. This Defendant no longer manufactures and/or sells asbestos-containing insulation products and is, therefore, unaware of current technology in the field. 67. See answer to Interrogatory No. 66. 68. Not with regard to LT Cork Covering and Armaspray. To our knowledge, there was no effective substitute for the asbestos used in these two products. This Defendant has
9
neither records nor actual knowledge by which to answer this
interrogatory regarding products manufactured by others.
69, We have neither records nor actual knowledge by which
to answer the specifics of this interrogatory. We believed at
the time of manufacture of our asbestos-containing insulation

. CONTRACT OPERATIONS
Armstrong manufactured pure cork insulation products for low tem perature applications, which were difficult to install. Therefore, Armstrong established a contract unit with skilled workers to ensure correct installation.
To provide full service to its customers, Armstrong's contract unit in about 1940 expanded into the installation of high temperature insula tion products manufactured by other companies. These manufacturers imposed limits on Armstrong both as to customers and geographic locations in which Armstrong could install these products.
At che end of 1957, Armstrong contract unit activity ceased when a separate company, Armstrong Contracting & Supply Corporation, took over this business. That company is now known as ACandS, Inc.
It. PRODUCTS
The high temperature asbestos-containing insulation products used by Armstrong's contract unit, beginning in about 1940, were manufactured by the following companies:
KEASBEY & MATTISON (now Nicolet, Inc.)
BALDVIN-HILL COMPANY (now Keene Corporation)
EHRET MAGNESIA MANUFACTURING COMPANY (now Keene Corporation)
OWENS-ILLINOIS GLASS COMPANY (product distributed by OvensCorning Fiberglas Company)
UNARCO (now in bankruptcy)
A low temperature product manufactured by Armstrong (LT Cotk Covering) was used by its contract unit (1956-57), then by Armstrong Contracting & Supply Corporation (1953-59). Armstrong also manufactured Armaspray (1966-68), a test product sold only to Armstrong Contracting & Supply Corporation. The products manufactured by the other companies for Armstrong's contract operation were:

II. WARNINGS & CAUTIONS REGARDING ARMSTRONG PRODUCTS
A. Armaspray
1* Users
Armstrong Contracting and Supply Corporation was the sole purchaser of Armaspray. In its Construction Manual, it published safety precautions to be followed in all applica tions of Armaspray. The Construction Manual was used in training and in actual application, and was in use during the entire period of Armaspray application. Only employees so trained applied the product. For applications of Armaspray with the A-200 spray equipment, the safety precaution read:
Always wear a U.S.-approved respirator when spraying. If tamping in the vicinity of the actual spray operation, the tamper should also wear a respirator.
For applications of Armaspray with the Armaspray Junior spray equipment, the safety precaution read:
Page 1 of 3
7.1.4 The circular saw used for cutting the legs
is always a possible hazard.
.
7.2 Means Used to Safeguard
7.2.1 There is a no smoking rule, except for cer tain small specified areas, throughout the plant. The spray booth used for this opera
' tion is built of fire resistant materials.
7.2.2 The spray booth is equipped with a 3 foot diameter ventilating fan to remove the adhe sive fumes. This fan must be used when LT Cork Covering is being made and during clean-up operations.
7.2.3 All persons using the Toluol clean-up solvent must wear rubber gauntlet gloves.
7.2.4 The Oliver and railway saws are equipped
with a guard for the exposed blade. The saw
operator is provided with a wooden ram for
pushing the various places of corkboard past
the saw blade.
These were in effect during the entire period of manufacture, 1956-59.
The author is Dale H. Lockland.

CORK COVER IMG ' ^ Ut
LT-Thirty Cork Covering
LT-Zero Cork Covering
LT-Minus Thirty Cork Covering
Armstrong LT Cork Covering is a new type of pipe insulation, developed by Armstrong Research for use on all low-temperature lines. It gives you the high insulating value, rigid strength, and long life of molded type cork covering, yet can be bought and installed at much lower cost.
MADE OF HIGH-QUALITY CORK--LT Covering is made from precision-cut segments of Armstrong Corkboard, having a thermal conductivity of .26 Btu per square foot per hour per degree tempera ture difference per inch thickness at 60 F. mean temperature. Segments are adhered to a backing of asbestos paper and aluminum foil laminate.
FIRE- AND VAPOR-RESISTANT--The asbestos paper provides a highly fire-resistant finish and the aluminum foil seals out moisture vapor.
A THICKNESS FOR EVERY CONDITION--LT Cov ering is made in thicknesses calculated to prevent condensation when used indoors under normal de sign conditions and within recommended tempera ture ranges. On outdoor lines, under severe service 'conditions, additional thicknesses may be necessary.
LT-Thirty*--Made in .8" thickness, for use on lines operating at 30 F. or higher.
LT-Zero*--Made in IW* thickness, for use on lines operating at temperatures as low as 0 F.
LT-MInus Thirty*--Made in Wz" thickness for pipes through 1 Vi" IPS, 2" thickness for pipes to 8" IPS, and 2%" thickness for larger pipe sizes. For use on lines operating at temperatures as low as 30 below zero.
All three types are made in 36" lengths and will fit accurately all sizes of iron pipe or copper tubing from Va" up.
For temperatures below minus 30, LT Cork Covering will be made in Minus Sixty, Minus Ninety, and Minus One-Hundred-Twenty Thick nesses on order.
APPLICATION IS FAST AND EASY--Armstrong LT Covering is manufactured with a lap of the as bestos-aluminum paper backing at the longitudinal joint. In application to straight piping, the lap is sealed in place with Armstrong 520 Adhesive, and
*T*AOC-MAMK
the end joints are sealed with Armstrong LT Sealing Tape. As no wiring, pointing, or painting is needed, LT Covering goes on the piping with remarkable speed and ease.
Fittings are insulated with pieces of LT Covering, fabricated right on the job, or with Armstrong Plasticork. Plasticork is a cork-and-rubber com position material that is molded by hand over the fitting.
By using the proper size of LT Covering and making a few simple saw cuts, covers for any fitting can be fabricated easily and rapidly. Voids between fitting and fitting cover are filled with Armstrong Plasticork, and exposed ends are sealed with Arm strong LT Sealer and LT Sealing Tape for a vaportight installation.
Field fabrication of fitting covers speeds the job. Workmen can insulate the entire line as they go, with no waits for factory shipments of fitting covers.
VAPOR BARRIER UNBROKEN--As no nails or staples are needed to install LT Covering, the vapor seal formed by the paper backing is un broken. There are no punctures where infiltrating vapor can cause condensation or frost formation within the insulation.
CAN BE REMOVED AND REUSED--When lines are relocated, or taken out of service, the asbestos-andaluminum paper can be cut and LT Covering sal vaged without damage to the cork. The covering can be applied again, using Armstrong LT Sealing Tape to hold it in place.
SAVES STORAGE SPACE--Inventories of LT Cork Covering take up no more storage space than board-form material, as the insulation comes in fiat sheets rather than in curved sections.
FOR A DE LUXE FINISH--For a durable, easy-tomaintain finish, or where color identification of the line is desired, Armstrong Insulcolor can be ap plied over the vaporproof paper backing on LT Covering. On outdoor installations, 4-oz. canvas must be applied over LT Sealing Tape at joints before finishing with Insulcolor. ( For complete in formation on Armstrong Insulcolor, call or write for free booklet.)
SUNDRIES FOR APPLYING
(Armstrong lt
CORK COVERING
Armstrong 520 Adhesive---This all-purpose adhe sive forms a strong, resilient bond between almost any clean, dry surfaces. The bond is an excellent vapor seal and grows stronger with time. Available in one-half pint, pint, quart, and gallon containers. Coverage is 25 to 30 lin. ft per pint
Armstrong Plasticork--For use in packing the space between LT Fitting Covers and pipe fittings, and for hand molding fitting covers. This is a granulated corkand-rubber composition, supplied in sheets about one foot square and one-half inch thick. Packaged in card board cartons containing 5, 15, and 30 lbs.
Armstrong LT Sealer--For use in sealing joints and ends of LT Fitting Covers. This white sealer is the con sistency of caulking compound. It is a vapor-barrier coating that meets the fire resistance requirements of U. S. Specification MIL-P-878A. Packaged in %-pint, pint, quart, 1- and 5-gallon containers.
Armstrong LT Sealing Tape--Used to seal end joints of Armstrong LT Cork Covering. This is a vapor-barrier, pressure-sensitive adhesive tape. Supplied in rolls 2" wide, 3 and 36 yards long, white in color.

APPLICATION OF
(Armstrong lt
CORK COVERING
IS FAST AND EASY
The speed with which insulation mechanics can ap ply Armstrong LT Cork Covering results in substantial time and labor savings, compared with conventional application methods. With LT Covering there are no wires or bands to apply, no sealers or seam fillers are required, and no cloth, twine, or paper must be wrapped around the insulation. Indoors, no further finishing is necessary, except where desired for decora tion or identification.
Fitting covers are fabricated on the job from sections of LT Covering or can be built up with Armstrong Plasticork. A brief description of fitting cover fabrica tion methods is contained on Pages 6 and T. Com plete details are available in a booklet entitled. "General Instructions for Fabrication of Fitting Covers of Arm strong LT Cork Covering," which is available from Armstrong on request.
Data on application of Plasticork fitting covers is contained on Pages 10 and 11.
H The surfaces of the backing paper that come in
j contact with each other are coated with Arm-
strong 520 Adhesive. In this picture, the adhesive has been applied to the underside of the longitudinal Hap, and the workman is coating the area of the as bestos paper that will be covered by the flap.
After the 520 Adhesive has dried to the touch,
2 Armstrong LT Covering is positioned on the pipe with the flap downward. When the covering is in place, the cork segments fit together without gaps or voids. No adhesive need be applied to them.
3 With the covering held firmly in place, die flap is sealed down by the workman running his thumb along the paper at the longitudinal joint. The rest of the flap is then sealed in place. Waterproof adhesive and vapor-barrier paper form a moistureimpervious outer wrap.
After the seams and cork segments have been
4 aligned, end joints are sealed simply by wrapping them with Armstrong LT Sealing Tape. This vaporproof tape completes the vapor-barrier and pro vides a neat looking joint between lengths of Aim'trong LT Cork Covering.
Cutting of short lengths, when required, should
5 be done with a miter box or with a mechanical saw. End joints must be square cut for snug fit so that there is no danger of condensation and frost for mation at those points. Both the cork segments and the paper cut cleanly.
FABRICATION OF 909 AND 45* ELL COVERS
ON-THE-JOB FABRICATION OF FITTING COVERS SPEEDS APPLICATION
of (Armstrong
LT CORK COVERING
Fitting covers for LT Cork Covering installations are
fabricated on the job. Lengths of LT Covering of a size
that will encircle the fitting at its point of maximum
diameter are used. By making a few simple cuts with
a saw and miter box, any fitting can be easily and
quickly insulated. Except for screwed fittings, space
between the fitting and the cover is packed with Arm
strong Plasticork, eliminating voids and increasing the
efficiency of the installation. Armstrong LT Sealer is
applied to the exposed ends of the LT Cork Covering
and joints in the fitting cover are cemented with Arm
strong 520 Adhesive for a completely vaporproof in
stallation.
,
Field fabrication does away with the delay caused
when covers for special fittings must be made up at
the factory and shipped to the job site. In all cases,
regardless of the fitting encountered, it can be insu
lated along with straight piping as the job progresses.

APPLICATION OF
(Armstrong
PLASTICORK
TO FITTINGS
Insulation of cold line fittings is rapid and eco nomical with Armstrong Plasticork. The fit ting first is primed with a brush coat of Arm strong 520 Adhesive. Small pieces of Plasti cork are used to fill out hollows and form an even contour. Sheets of Plasticork then are built up to the desired thickness around the fitting and held in place with twine. For a de luxe finish, a Vcoat of Keenes Cement is trowelled smoothly over the Plasticork fol lowed by 2 coats of Armstrong Weatherproof Plastic or LT Sealer to provide a vapor, barrier. Other finishes include white industrial tape and LT Sealer, friction tape and Weather proof Plastic, or Armstrong LT Sealing Tape. This tape requires no further finish indoors.
HOW TO DETERMINE PLASTICORX USAGE
By using the data on these pages, you can determine the amount of Plasticork and sundries needed for insulation of all fittings. Insulation thicknesses are based on the `Table of Recommended Thicknesses" immediately be low.
The three tables that follow indicate the number of pounds of Plasticork required to insulate cold line fittings on piping insulated with LT-Thirty, LT-Zero, and LTMinus Thirty Cork Covering.
The areas shown in the three tables represent the num ber of square feet of Plasticork surface after the insula tion has been applied and should be used in estimating Keene's Cement, Weatherproof Plastic, and Friction Tape or LT Sealing Tape requirements. When estimating primer requirements, (Armstrong 520 Adhesive) use only 50% of the total area shown.
In estimating sundry requirements, use the following coverage data: Keene's Cement: IYa, lbs. per sq. ft. (Yi" thick) Weatherproof Plastic: 45 sq. ft. per gal. (2 coats) 520^Adhesive (primer): 725 sq. ft per gal.
Friction Tape or LT Sealing Tape: 1" width--for fittings through 2" IPS approx. 25 lin. ft per sq. ft, surface, or 3.1 sq. ft per 75-ft roll 2" width--for fittings through 6" IPS approx. 8 lin. ft per sq. ft. surface, or 9.4 sq. ft. per 75-ft. roll
Note: for valves add 10% for tape flashing seal

85% Magnesia Pipe Covering and Block
e Armstrong Cork Company furnishes and installs the Soft Magnesia Pipe Covering and Block and other heat insulation products of the Keasbev and Mattison Company in most of the nation's leading industrial centers.
85% Magnesia insulation is the most widely used material in the beat insulation field for temperatures up to 600 F. This material com bines the high insulating properties of basic carbonate of magnesia with the proper amount of clean asbestos, fiber as a binding agent, resulting in an insulation that is exceptionally light and highly efficient. It consists of not less than 95% by weight of a mixture of hydrated basic carbon ate of magnesia and long fiber asbestos. The magnesia and asbestos mixture is homogeneous and not less than 85% of the total is hydrated basic carbonate of magnesia and not less than
107* is asbestos fiber.
Through many years of dependable service, 85% Magnesia insulation has demonstrated that it is the most efficient and durable molded type heat insulation material manufactured today. In addition to its light weight and high insulating efficiency, it is absolutely fireproof and has the mechanical strength necessary to withstand all ordinary usage to which insulations of this type
are subjected. Water has no deteriorating effect on 85% Magnesia. It can become completely water soaked, and when dried out regains its original strength and efficiency characteristics. When properly applied and maintained, it will not crack, crumble, or fail mechanically. 85% Magnesia is manufactured in sectional or seg mental forms for application to pipes, and in block form for fiat surfaces.
85% Magnesia Pipe Insulation
857 Magnesia pipe insulation is manufactured in half sections and in sets of segmental blocks 3 feet long, in the following thicknesses:
Standard, iy>", 2"
'
Double Standard (supplied in two layers) and
Three Inch Thick (supplied in two layers)
(See table, "85% Magnesia Insulation Thick nesses" on Page 111.)
Half sections of pipe insulation arc split hori zontally and furnished with factory' applied can vas jackets, forming hinge and lap. They are shipped with necessary brass lacquered bands for proper application. Segmental blocks for in sulation of piping arc supplied without jackets.

Hy-Temp Pipe Covering and Block
Hy-temp insulation is recommended for heated
lines and surfaces where temperatures range from above 600 F. to 1900 F. This material is made from calcined diatomaceous earth, asbestos fiber, magnesia carbonate, and binders.
Hy-temp insulation is generally used as an in ner layer in combination with an outer layer of 85% Magnesia. The inner layer of Hy-Teinp is used in a thickness sufficient to reduce the tem perature at the So% Magnesia to within safe limits for that product. Because hy-temp insula tion will withstand higher temperatures than 85% Magnesia, but is not so efficient an insulator as 85% Magnesia, a combination of the two ma terials utilizes the high heat resistance of the high temperature insulation and the greater effi ciency of 85% Magnesia to best advantage. Hytemp insulation possesses sufficient strength so that it can be handled without breakage.

Hy-Temp Pipe Insulation
Hy-Temp Pipe Insulation is furnished in tubu lar half sections and sets of curved segmental blocks 3 ft in length and in thicknesses from 1" to 3". Half sections are furnished for pipe sizes of 10" and smaller. Insulation for pipe sizes larger than 10" in single layer or inner layer only of double standard thick or 3" thick broken joint construction is furnished in segments. The 12" sue can be furnished in sectional covering 1^" and 2%/' thick on specific order.
In most applications Ily-Temp Pipe Insulation is wired on as an inner layer, in combination with an outer layer of 85% Magnesia. It is furnished without canvas jacket and bunds.

Hy-Tcmp Block Insulation
Hy-Temp 13Jocks arc furnished in standard widths of 3", 6", 9", and 12" and in 33" lengths flat. Thicknesses range from 1" to 4". Curved blocks arc furnished in standard 6" widths and 36" lengths. Thicknesses range from 1V1" to 2".
Hy-Temp Blocks arc usually used in combina tion with an outer layer of S3' 1 Magnesia Blocks. The Hy-Temp Blocks are applied as an inner layer to bring the temperature at the magnesia down to the limits of that product.
This main steam header, carrying superheated steam at 4(X) pounds pressure from the fouler in the background to the power plant turbine, is insulated with lli" thick Hy-Temp Covering and a similar thickness of 85% Mag nesia Covering. Hy-Temp Block is used under the steel shell to reduce heat losses through the boiler wails.

Bestfelt Pipe Covering and Block
v\
Destfclt Insulation is made in pipe covering and
block form of built-up layers of crimped as
bestos paper. There are approximately 33 layers
of paper per inch of insulation thickness. The ma
terial is suitable for use on heated pipes and sur
faces where temperatures do not exceed 700 F.
It is often specified in place of
Magnesia
for applications where the insulation is subjected
to excessive conditions of vibration or where it
must be removed and replaced frequently. For
example, removable Hatige covers made of Best-
felt have the high strength necessary to resist
damage that occurs to many insulations when
the covers are removed and replaced.
For thermal conductivity of Bestfelt I tion, see curve on Page 126.
Bestfelt Pipe Insulation
Bestfelt Pipe Covering is supplied : foot sections with canvas jackets and ' quered bands for application. It is avr pipe sizes from Vy" to 24".
Standard Thickness approximates nesses of 1", IV*", 2", and 2H" ar in single layer construction. A 3" supplied with broken joint coustn: equal thicknesses.

Air Cell Insulations
Air cell insulations are recommended for use
on steam, hot water lines, and other heated sur faces where temperatures do not exceed 300 F. Pipe covering and blocks are made of alternate layers of corrugated and Hat asbestos felt bonded together by a special laminating process. In air cell block insulation, the corrugated layers are crossed at right angles to give the block greater rigidity and durability. Air cell insulation is light in weight, rigid, and sufficiently strong for appli cations where service conditions are not severe.
Air cel! insulation is available in three types: air cell, fine corrugated air cell, and special fine air cell. The difference in the three types lies in
the number of layers of corrugated asbestos felt used per inch of thickness. The greater the num ber of corrugations per inch, the higher is the strength and insulating efficiency of the product.
Air Cell Pipe Insulation (Four Plies per Inch)
Air cell pipe insulation is furnished in stand
ard thicknesses of 4 plies, each ply being approxi
mately
thick. Greater thicknesses will be
furnished when requested. Pipe covering sec
tions are three feet long and are shipped com
plete with canvas jacket and lacquered bands
for application to ail standard sizes of pipes.

Non-Frost Pipe Insulation
N on-Frost Pipe Insulation is applied to retard
freezing in cold water and drain pipSs in un heated rooms or where they are exposed to out side temperatures under normal conditions.
Tins insulation is constructed of layers of hair felt covered with several layers of paper felt and lined with a layer of specially treated paper felt to prevent the hair felt from coming in direct contact with the pipe surface. The hair felt because of its excellent insulating properties, is used to retard the escape of heat from the water in the pipes to the colder surrounding air. The paper felt jacket and the inner layer of treated paper felt protects the hair felt from infiltration of moisture that would impair its insu lating efficiency.
Non-Frost Pipe Insulation should be used only on cold water pipes that are exposed to moderate rather than extremely low temperatures, or where the time that the surrounding air would be below the freezing point is of short duration. When Non-Frost Pipe Insulation is applied to outdoor piping, special provisions must be made for weatherproofing and protecting it.
Pipe covering is furnished in 3' sections, with canvas jacket and brass lacquered bands for application. It is manufactured in one thickness,
for all pipe sizes from Vb" up.

on-Sweat Pipe Insulation is a combination of insulating and waterproofing felts used to pre vent condensation on cold water lines. The in sulating felts protect the flow of heat to the pipe. The waterproofing felt protects the insulation from the moisture in the air.
Non-Sweat Pipe Insulation is furnished in single and double layer construction. Single layer Non-Sweat is made in thicknesses of and *4". Double layer is made in thicknesses of I", l1'*:", 2". The illustration on this page shows double layer or broken joint construction used in thicknesses of 1" and over. This.construc-
tion eliminates the longitudinal and abutting joints that in ordinary pipe covering extend from the outside of the covering to the pipe.

Heat Loss Chart--To determine the surface tem perature of a given thickness of Blanket, read the chart as follows: Under table of recommended thicknesses, a 3-in. Blanket is suggested for equipment having a hot surface temperature of 800 F. Therefore follow vertically from the 800 F. point until that line intercepts the 3-in. curve. At that point, follow in a horizontal line to the left until it intercepts the margin, and it will be seen that at that point the figure is 138. which is the temperature in . degrees Fahrenheit of the cold surface on the outside of the mineral wool blanket
Similarly, to determine the heat loss for a given condition, refer again to the example on the chart:
Follow vertically from the S00 F. mark, to an intersection with the 3-in. curve. From that point, follow horizontally to the right until intercepting the heat loss curve. At this point, go vertically to the upper margin which is calibrated in terms of b.t.u. heat loss, and it will be seen that the heat loss for this particular condition is 95 b.t.u. per s<j. ft. per hour.

Hair Felt Insulation (Navy Standard)
ilair Felt is composed of 100% selected cattle
hair processed into roll blankets. The primary use of hair felt insulation is to prevent water pipes from freezing. This material is used in a specified number of built-up layers of 1" thicknesses, bound in place on the pipe with heavy jute twine and protected on the outer surface with a weatherproof jacket.
Hair Felt is furnished in standard rolls of 3'
x 100', 3' x 50', 6' x 50', and 9' x 50' in the thick-
` nesses and weights shown in the table below:
certain amount of circulation. With no circula tion, if the air remains at low temperature for only a short period of time freezing can be pre vented by the insulation.
The table on Page 140 gives rates of heat trans mission through 2 layer, 3 layer, and 4 layer built-up hair felt insulation on pipes from Vi" to 12" in diameter.

Figures are given to show the time required for the water in a pipe to cool 10 F. from 42 to 32 F., but a difference in temperature be tween water and air at 60 F., which would correspond to an air temperature of 18 below zero. Water should not be allowed to remain in the pipes without circulation for longer than
the time mentioned. The last column of figures in the table indi cates the minimum amount of water that should be supplied per hour at 42 F., per each lineal foot of pipe in order to prevent the temperature of the water from dropping to the freezing point. As a safety factor to provide against temporary reduction of flow due to lower pressure or other causes, the rate of flow should be at least double that given in the table. Figures on time and flow apply only to the given conditions. For example, if water enters the pipes at 52 F., instead of 42 F. it will take double the
given time to cool the water to the freezing point and,only half the amount of water will be re quired to circulate to prevent freezing.
On the other hand, if water enters at 33 F.
it will be cooled to 32 F. in V1{J the time given
in the table and 10 times as much water will have to be circulated to prevent freezing.
The times shown in the tabic are those re quired to lower the water to the freezing point. Actually, longer times would be required to freeze all the water in the pipes, but ouce the water starts to freeze the danger point has been reached. If frozen at only one point, flow will be stopped and the entire line endangered.
If the water remains without circulation longer than the safe time indicated, the only positive way to protect the line is to provide a small steam or hot water line along side the cold water line and then apply insulation so that it entirely surrounds both lines.

Insulating Cements and Finishes
/ Insulating cements are used as insulation and
as finishes. They are applied as insulation to fittings too small to be insulated with blocks, and on irregular surfaces or inaccessible surfaces that cannot be practically covered with pipe insula tion or blocks. Insulating cements, like other heat insulating materials, have top temperature limits at which they may he expected to perform efficiently. Other important physical charac teristics that must bo considered in the choice of a cement are outlined under the descriptive ma terial on each cement.
Hy-Temp Cement
This cement is similar in composition to Hy-
temp insulation in powder form and can be used
on surfaces up to temperatures of 1900 F. It
is recommended for use on irregular or small
surfaces where the application of Ily-temp blocks
or pipe insulation is impractical, and for pointing
up of Hy-temp block and pipe insulation applica
tions. Because of its relatively porous nature,
Hy-temp cement is not recommended as a finish
ing cement.
No. 152 Asbestos Cement
Tliis is an inexpensive, high-grade insulating cement made of asbestos fillers and binding ma terials. It may be applied to hot surfaces Up to 600 F. .\s a finishing cement, it produces a hard, durable and smooth finish. This is a natural colored cement which dries to a very light gray shade. Where extra hard finish is required. Port land Cement may be added to No. 152 Asbestos Cement, mixing three parts asbestos cement and one part Portland Cement bv weight. No. 152 Asbestos Cement is also used for roughing in.
85% Magnesia Cement
This cement is similar in composition to $5% Magnesia Pipe Covering and Block Insulation but it is made in powder form. Efficiency of 85% Magnesia Cement is higher than that of any other plastic insulation. It is also extremely light in weight. The cement may he used on heated surfaces up to fl00 F.
This cement is not ordinarily used as a finish ing cement. Usually a layer of asbestos cement is used over S5% Magnesia Cement as a finish. When an extra hard finish is required, Portland
HI
Cement is added to the asbestos cement. (See "No. 152 Asbestos Cement.")
Amblerex No. 2 Cement
Tin's insulating cement is particularly recom mended for roughing in. It is composed of as bestos fibers, 8Sr/v Magnesia, and binders. It is ideal for use on fittings, irregular surfaces, and other places where highly efficient insulation is desired at a cost that is considerably below that of 85> Magnesia Cement. It may be used for temperatures up to 1000 F.
Mineral Wool Cement
Mineral Wool Cement is a plastic insulation made of heat resisting mineral wool combined with asbestos fiber and special clays. It will with stand temperatures up to 1800 F. It can be reclaimed if the temperatures have not exceeded 1200 F. It is an ideal plastic insulation for in sulating surfaces not suited to preformed types of insulation. .
Power House Cement
Power House Cement is manufactured by the Baldwin Ilill Company and is a hydraulic setting mineral wool cement. It is both a finishing and an insulating cement. It has exceptionally low shrinkage and can be applied in one coat without
cracking. Due to its high adhesive strength it can he installed without wire reinforcement.
Fibrous Adhesive
Fibrous Adhesive is a-plastic material for use as an adhesive to temporarily hold in place in sulation sheets, blocks, and segmental covering until permanent outer binding support is com pleted. This material is of thin trowelling con sistency and is recommended for use where in sulation is applied to brick, concrete, metal, or other surfaces. It is also used for binding insulat ing blocks together in multiple layer construc tion. 'Fibrous Adhesive is applied to the surface of the insulation and then pressed in place against the surface to be insulated. A spotting of the adhesive on the materia] is generally sufficient for this purpose.
It is necessary to remove all paint on surfaces to be insulated before applying insulation and fibrous adhesive. Otherwise the insulation will loosen after the adhesive dries out. The surface also must be clean, dry, and free of grease.
Fibrous Adhesive is furnished ready for use in 75 lb., 175 lb., 350 Ib.? and 800 lb. metal drums. Covering capacity is os follows:
1. Insulation against metal surfaces--50 lbs. per 100 sq. ft. of surface.
2. Insulation against masonry surfaces--75 lbs. per 100 sq. ft. of surface.

Factory Applied Weatherproof Jackets
For Pipe Insulations
Three types of weatherproof jackets applied at the factory on special order are available. They include Standard Weatherproof Jackets. Heavy Weight Weatherproof Jackets, and 50 lb. As bestos Jackets. All three types include 6" wide strips or collars for covering the circumferential joints at the ends of the sectional covering. The weatherproof jackets are lapped along the longi tudinal joints, but the lap is loose so that the in sulation can be applied over the pipe in the usual manner.
Standard Weatherproof Jackets are made from a rag felt saturated and coated with. asphalt. They weigh <35 lbs. per 108 sq. ft.
Heavy Weight Weatherproof Jackets are made from a rag felt saturated and coated with asphalt. They are almost twice as heavy as the Standard Weatherproof Jackets, weighing approximately 60 lbs. per I0S sq. ft.
50 lb. Asbestos jackets are made from asbestos felt, saturated and coated on both sides with asphalt, and given a final coat of talc and mica on both sides. These jackets weigh approximately 5S lbs. per 108 sq. ft.
When specifying weatherproof jackets for pipe insulation, the exact type required should be mentioned. Unless this is done, all orders for pipe insulation calling for '`roofing jackets'*or-weathcrproof jackets" without detailed specifications as
to weight and quality will be made up with
Standard Weatherproof Jackets.
Where the specifications call for "roofing
jackets" or "weatherproof jackets" weighing in
excess of <35 lbs. per 108 sq. ft., orders will be
made up with Heavy Weight Weatherproof
Jackets.
.--
When factory applied weatherproof jackets are
ordered, the necessary lap cement for sealing
joints, and wire or bands, are furnished.
_ Armstrong's lmulmastic
lnsulmastic is a factory-mixed combination of Armstrong's Asphalt Emulsion with special fibers and fillers. It is recommended for use where a fire-resistant finish is required. Applied in two coats, each approximately Vs'* thick. lnsulmastic is an excellent finishing material for low-tem perature insulation exposed to the weather. On high towers, vessels, elevated lines, large ducts, breechings, etc., galvanr/ed wire mesh should be applied directly to the insulation before .Arm strong's lnsulmastic is troweled on.
Armstrong's lnsulmastic possesses the tensile strength necessary to withstand normal move ment without cracking or rupturing, is not af fected by temperature changes, does not slip or sag at high temperatures, and bonds well with the eorkboard insulation surface.
When lnsulmastic is applied in two coats, each about 1 -j/` thick, the two coats will dry to a final thickness of
Armstrong's Insulnuistic is ,m ex cellent finish for expansion loops and fittings on outdoor strain lines. It will withstand movement without rupturing or cracking and does not slip or sag.
