Recognizing the demand for a better quality than had been obtainable hereto- fore, being fully aware of the existence of many serious defects, and believing that a substantial improvement in quality could be obtained only by a radical departure from the methods of manufacture in general use, we have, at large expense, installed an entirely new plant, which we believe is unequaled in scientific construction and quality of goods pro- duced. We have been led to make these improvements after twenty-five years' experience in the manu- facture of this line of material, and after having made an exhaustive investigation of the best methods known both in this country and in Europe. Our Seamless Tubing, Brass, Copper and Bronze, is produced by a patent hot rolling process of which we are licensees. This process transforms a solid, cylindrical billet of metal at a single opera- tion into a tube. The tubes so formed are cold-drawn sufficiently to give them a perfectly smooth finish, both inside and outside. 32 All the metal used is carefully selected, pre- pared with special care in casting, and heated for rolling in a manner that entirely prevents oxidation or deterioration. The action of the rolls will be readily understood from illustration herewith. The advantages of this process are, that by revolving the billet between the conical rollers at same time that it is forced onto the forming man- drel, a spiral formation is given to the metal com- 33 posing the walls of the tube, which greatly increases its tensile strength. A parallel to this tubing is found in a twist gun barrel, the fibres of which are arranged spirally about its axis, rendering it capable of resisting great bursting strain. Actual hydraulic tests show that 50 per cent, greater internal pressure is required to burst tubing of our manufacture than that made by other methods. A few advantages from our scientifically perfect method of tube making are as follows : TUBES NOT LIABLE TO CRACK: A tube made by our spiral rolling process is not liable to crack longitudinally. WILL NOT BREAK IN BENDING: It will not readily break in coiling or bend- ing. The smallest amount of annealing is required for flanging and bending it. FINE, SMOOTH FINISH : In forming these tubes from a solid billet a much finer inside finish is obtained than is possible when the tube shell is cast on a sand core. For pump cylinders, or other work requiring a perfectly smooth inside finish, our tubes are specially adapted. MALLEABILITY: It possesses unusual malleability, due to our peculiar process of manufacture. PURE STOCK: Our Seamless Copper Tubing is guaranteed Absolutely Pure Lake Superior Copper, while the brass and bronze metal is the very best that can be made. 34 When filling orders for Seamless Drawn Tubing, American or Brown and Sharpe gauge will be followed if gauge number is given without the name of gauge. INSTRUCTIONS FOR ORDERING SEAMLESS DRAWN TUBING Please always specify DIAMETER— Whether inside or outside, or give meas- ures of both diameters. TEMPER— Whether tubes are to be hard or soft, and, if possible, the purpose for which they are to be used. LENGTH— The exact length wanted, otherwise we will ship tubes in twelve foot lengths. SHIPMENT— All shipments will be made by freight, un- less otherwise ordered. If shipments are desired via any special route, please name the route in the order. All orders are accepted subject to delays in transit, accidents, and other causes beyond our control. SEAMLESS TUBING WEIGHTS AND SIZES 35 We call especial attention to the pages of tables in reference to Seamless Tub- ing, which have been compiled with great exactness from specific gravities of our own metals accurately determined. These are mathematically correct, though in practice some variation from these weights may be expected. Stubb's or Old English Gauge was formerly recognized as the standard for seamless tubing, but most manufactur- ers now use American or Brown and Sharpe Gauge, and we therefore include both gauges in our price lists and tables. 36 co CO CIS pq t>0 fl d o « * P O H -t-» co T3 r/i T3 <5 T3 PQ CO O CO -H W cu h-1 u s cs .
