The adhesives that provide this remarkable bond are made from "Vinylite" resins, and are of the same family of plastics that form the tough, transparent windshield for an airplnne, the coating for the paper liner inside the cover of a cold cream jar. or the interior coating of a beer can. Because they are odorless, tasteless, non- toxic and resistant to acids and alkalis, these plastics go into the most diveiae manufacturing proc- esses. But in bonding metals, of course, strength is the most im portant factor. Joining metal to metal with ’’Vinylite" resin adhesives has a good deal in common with using a jar of library paste. The prin cipal difference is the use of neat, and of course far greater pres- miics until the bond is made. Ex periments have shown that sam ple joints have a shear strength of approximately 6,000 pounds per square inch In addition, they are capable of withstanding sharp blows without parting Plastics have long since caught the public eye with their colorful and rich appearance in many ap plications Few realize the service they arc rendering in unseen places such as adhesives, bonding materials and numetous c mpo- nent parts of mach 1 ap paratus of all kinds LOANS s» i gene tiiom xs Lie Nos S-211 A M-Í17 < entrai Meilfonl — Tell The News To Building a Greater Southern Oregon SNIDER'S 2 KIM 2S X Medford.
