Want a battery of compliments? If you're looking for a product that will win compliments everywhere, take a lesson from the manufacturer of the big batteries shown above. He has learned through experience that some jobs are made to order for P L I O F L E X rubber. His particular problem lay in finding the right material for the battery cases. Conventional container materials didn't have the strength or resilience to withstand the shock, pressure and abuse of rugged Diesel locomotive service. His answer was to pioneer the use of fully molded, hard rubber cases and covers.

At first, natural rubber was used. Later, his case supplier suggested changing to P L I O F L E X . The reasons? PLIOFLEX is considerably more uniform, accepts a wide variety of fillers for easier compounding, processes more readily with fast, safe cures in all h a r d n e s s ranges. The result: A better battery case at lower cost. How can P L I O F L E X improve your product? Why not find out by writing, today, for full details and the finest in technical assistance, including the latest Tech Book Bulletins. Address: Goodyear, Chemical Division, Dept.
