We have received the following reply which we discussed November 8 1968
As discussed in our phone conversation Friday November 8 1968 none of the materials listed in your letter contain crocidolite blue asbestos
fiber The asbestos fiber in all of these products is chrysotile In addition Superex does contain some amosite asbestos fiber
Neither I nor our the fiber referred

M DOUBLE COATED FLEXSTONE
is a rugged heavy duty weatherproofing jacket especially recommended for the protection of insulation on outdoor pipes and small diameter cylindrical vessels It is composed of asphalt-
saturated asbestos felt coated with a mineral-
filled asphalt Correctly designed for long life Double Coated Flexstone jackets will not embrittle under prolonged exposure to sunlight Supplied in rolls 36 in wide each roll containing 108 sq ft and weighing 50 lbs
M ASBESTOS FIRETARD is a weatherproof-
ing jacket designed for use where resistance to the spread of fire is of primary importance Firetard is a lamination of heavy saturated asbestos felt and plain asbestos felt and affords excellent insulation pro-
tection Because the unsaturated asbestos is incombus-
tible it prevents flame from traveling along the surface
of an insulated pipe line Recommended for weatherproofing outdoor pipes and small diameter vessels wher ever fire hazards are present Supplied in rolls 32 in
wide each roll containing 108 sq ft and weighing 55 lbs

Dear Mr. Foreman
On August 30 I wrote to inform you that I had been to to take micro air samples for asbestos airborne fibers Alibn any Manville's firetard jacketing The laboratory results
have been returned to me and all samples were well below the
present standard I will give a description of the sampling
situation and the exact results
in Three samples numbers 1 2 and 3 were taken the Albany
warehouse in the immediate area that the jacketing was stacked The two warehouse workers were doing their normal work duties while the testing was in progress Samples
4 numbers and 5 were taken at the General Electric plant
located in Waterfort The pumps were secured to the workers
with the filters positioned in their breathing zones Operator wearing sample number 4 was working on the ground
and removed the outside paper with a five inch knife -- --
continued to unroll the jacketing and cut it into strips of four feet The strips were then hoisted by rope to the
operator wearing sample number 5 who
twelve foot scaffold He secured the
THERMO pipe insulation with copper
was working on a jacketing around
wire
The results of the tests are as follows

Asbestos Fibers
Gentlemen
The information in your letter of November 4 1968 was transmitted to our
.
Environmental Control Department for reply This letter referred to the
types of fibers used in the following insulation materials
Thermobestos Superex No. 352 Cement Insulkote ST Insulkote ET DC Flexstone
We have received the following reply which we discussed November 8 1968
As discussed in our the materials listed fiber The asbestos
phone conversation Friday November 8 1968 none of in your letter contain crocidolite blue asbestos
fiber in all of these products is chrysotile In
addition Superex does contain some amosite asbestos fiber
Neither I nor our Asbestos Fiber Research Department is familiar with the fiber referred to as LTU
// E. M. Fenner
If you have additional information on the LTU that we can trace it we ,
shall be happy to do so
