Lockport Mills, Inc. Thermal and Acoustical INSULATION Dept C. Lockport, N. Y. Insulation Moisture-Resistant--Chemical treat ment, combined with natural protective coating on cotton fibres, enables cotton to effectively resist moisture. Prevents rot and mildew. Smooth Texture--No sharp particles to irritate the skin. Flexible--Cotton batt may be ex panded or contracted to fit any enclosure. Easy to Warehouse and Handle. Offers far more "compressibility." Requires one-third/the trucking and warehouse space of ordinary insulation. Five featured types to meet every insu lation need: (I) OPEN BLANKET backed by tough, waterproof, asphalt-coated kraft paper to form an effective vapor barrier. (2) ENCLOSED BLANKET. Insulation completely enclosed in enve lope, asphalt-coated paper on one side, porous or "breather" type paper on other. (3) OPEN ALUMINUM FOIL. All the features of Open Type 1 plus the extra value of aluminum foil backing. Effective vapor barrier . . . stops 90 per cent of radiant heat. (4) ENCLOSED ALUMINUM FOIL. Superior in insula tion plus values and thermal efficiency. (5) DOUBLE FOIL, aluminum foil on top and back, plus superior Lo-K Blanket efficiency for tops in insulating value. Thermal Conductivity--The "k" value for cotton is 0.24 Btu/br/sq ft/degree F/inch. (See table.) Light Weight--Weight of 1 cu ft is % lb. (See table.) Flame-Proofed--Withstands 1800 blow torch heat. Simple and Economical to Install. Saves from 25 to 40 per cent in costs. Designed to Maintain Maximum Utility. Resists all types of deterioration. Won't sag or settle. Packaged in Rolled Form. Thicknesses--inches: 1, 1}, 2, 3, 3%. Width--16, 20, 24 in. centers. Lengths: Standard from 12 ft up. INSULATING VALUE OF VARIOUS INSULATORS* The coefficients of conductivity (k value) are expressed in Btu per hour per square foot per degree Fahrenheit per I in. of thickness.

Youngstown, Ohio Natural Cork--Cork in its natural state consists of minute hermetically sealed cells containing "dead" air. Approxi mately 200,000,000 cells per cubic inch. Cell walls are resinous, resilient, and im pervious to the passage of air. There is no "free" air to conduct heat or moisture and no capillary attraction. LOW TEMPERATURE INSULATION Mundet "Jolntite" Corkboard Natural cork is ground into V. in. to % in. granules and compressed under heat in moulds to produce Mundet flat or shaped corkboard. Air spaces between granules are eliminated by the pressure and the milled resin in the cell walls cements the mass into a homogeneous structure retaining the properties of natural cork. Mundet Corkboard meets U. S. Government Master Specifications. Its heat transmission is guaranteed not to exceed .29 Btu when tested in accordance with Bureau of Standards regulations. In actual cold storage practice, this figure may be safely reduced to .27 Btu. Sold in standard 12 in. x 36 in. sheet. Standard thicknesses, V in., 1 in., V/2 in., 2 in., 3 in., 4 in., 6 in. Mundet "Jointlte" Cork Pipe Covering Protects all types of low temperature lines. Made in 3 thicknesses, with com plete line of standard covers, suitable for pipes carrying sub-zero to 50 F tem perature. HEAT INSULATION 85% Custom-Molded Magnesia The new Mundet plant for the manu facture of 85per cent magnesia insulation makes available the most modern plant facilities for the production of heat insu lation in pipe covering and block forms.
