TEN/TEST is a manufactured lumber made from spruce fibres, solidly pressed under hydraulic pressure into a strong, homogeneous board. The fibres are chemi cally treated and water-proofed during process of manufacture, until the insula tion is non-hygroscopic, free from capillary attraction and moisture-resisting in service commensurate with the maximum degree of insulation obtainable.

Engineering and Specification Service
Our engineering department is at the service of Architects and Engineers at all times to assist and advise in the prepara tion of specifications pertaining to cork. This service is also available to any one who has a cold insulation or a vibration isolation problem, and is rendered without obligation. Send for our catalogue now. It is replete with valuable information and should always be within reach of every specification writer whose field touches our products.
Contract Service
We contract for the erection of our pro ducts in order that we may be certain that our material is installed in accordance with best established practice, and in order to eliminate divided responsibility for a given installation. No contract involving cork is too large or too small. All materials and workmanship are unqualifiedly guaranteed.

Mundet "Jointite" iCorkboard
Mundet "Jointite" Corkboard is 100 per cent pure cork, fabricated in accor dance with the U. S. Government Master Specification, and is unsurpassed, in its field. It is used for all cold insulation services and for acoustical correction. We manufacture only one grade of corkboard. Mundet. "Jointite" Corkboard is sold in the standard 12 in. x 36 in. sheet. Stand
ard thicknesses are in., 1 in., 1 x/i in.,
2 in., 3 in., 4 in. and 6 in.
Mundet "Jointite" Cork Pipe Covering
Mundet ``Jointite" Cork Pipe Covering is the complement of Mundet ``Jointite" Corkboard and is used for all types of cold lines. The three thicknesses in which it is manufactured make* it' suitable for pipes carrying sub-zero to 50 temperature. The
pipe covering comes in sections 36 in., long. A complete line of standard fitting covers is available in the three thick nesses.
Mundet Cork Vibration Isolation
Machinery isolation is today a most important part of the design of all struc tures. The transmission of machine vibra tion can be easily and permanently pre vented by the use of proper cork isolation. Mundet Natural Cork Isolation Mats are best adapted to most of the isolation field and Mundet Machinery Isolation Cork to the balance.
Mundet Natural Cork Isolation Mats are blocks of pure cork. These blocks are held together within a rigid steel frame, or bound with asphalt paper applied with hot asphalt top and bottom. Mats are con structed to fit under any type of machine foundation.
Above it shown a typical Mundet Natural Cork Isolation Mai. Note the natural cork stripe xoithin the steel frame.
Mundet Machinery Isolation Cork is manufactured board and comes in the three standard densities. It is composed of granules of pure cork, fabricated and baked under pressure. The standard size board is 12 in x 36 in. but these can readily be cut into any size or shape.
Both types of isolation are furnished in 1 in., 1 in., 2 in.,3 in., 4 in.and 6in., thick nesses, depending on the class of service.
