Dow Coining Corporation, Midland, Michigan with Dishicis at Atlanta, Boston,Chicago, Cleveland, Dallas, Los Angeles,
New YofK City, Washington, D.C,>nd 'Toronto has available Bulletin 09 019, August IOC? entitled "Silastic Design Data".
This lists the flasket fabricator* throughout the country from whom tire "Silastic 50" gasketing can be purchased in sheet,
extrusions or molded shapes.. . .
;,
Generally'Silastic, SO sheet floods ere stocked by local die cutters, trence, could he generally purchased locally. Usually small
Quantities of .gasheis arejdie cut.; If larger quantities are needed, tools ere made of the same type used to cut other
elastomers.
'
Where the gasket Is extruded,for fitting into a machined gibove or between flasket stops, OowCorning advises use of a
scarvcd joint. This joint H then cemented using Dow Coming's Silastic 140 (clear) or their RTV 731 (white) materials,
which ah cure.
.. ' :

' '
Dow Coming points out that the local "lubber" fabricators purchase the Silastic SO in billet form. 1 his Is worked on a roll
mill In preparation Ipr sheeting or extrusion. Then to obtain the desired physical properties the fabricator must oven cure
tbe SMastic 50 for 24 hours at 480?. .

The Intel melton herein regarding obtaining optimum resultshorn askarel fluids In your transformer has been accumulated by Monsanto for ovci 40 ycai shorn the expeiience of makers and users of askarel transformers and It Is believed will be helpful.
Nothing hoieln shell I* eonsbuod as applying to other than askarel. Insulation. Data and maintenance suggestions herein do not
apply to tl>e othei components of the transformer. All operating and maintenance suOfteslions recommended by the manrJfgc-
turei of the transformer should also be carefully followed. , r >;.
