Feldmann Customer: Caterpillar Tractor Company Peoria, Illinois Date: February 8, 1968 Department Gasket Sales Reference: Anti-Stick Coatings Samples and data of Victopac 65 and Asbestopac 232 coated with experimental formula M8g32 have been submitted to Mr. Crawford RlHs for evaluation. Although the separation force for samples conditioned at 0%RH were substantially higher than the 20 psi target, I am confident that our coating will be approved. The results of Caterpillar's evaluation are 6xpected about March 1, and the effective date of the anti-stick requirement would be 6 months from then. It is expected that the transition will be similiar to the Victopac 65 transition, except that there are certain parts that will require an anti-stick coating as soon as the specification goes into effect. Mr. Ellis is going, to furnish me a list of the parts and we will have.to take necessary steps to prevent an accumulation of uncoated stock on these numbers. If we are approved, and if other vendors cannot supply a satisfactory anti-stick, 1E202 approvals will be limited to Victor and'Johns Manville, and 1E677 wilLbe limited to Victor and Farnam. y' .
