A May 2, 1969 letter from Stedfast Rubber's plant manager asked Union Carbide Chemical Division about the asbestos content of the asbestos resin it purchased and whether respirators were required, after an insurance safety survey. The May 9, 1969 reply from J. A. Riddle enclosed an "Asbestos Toxicology Report", described Calidria Resin-Grade 144 as nearly pure chrysotile, and described respirator requirements.
