Eagle-Picher Private-Label Insulating Cements and a Cross-Reference of J-M Firecrete Castables to Competing Brands (c. 1972)

Two undated pages filed together. The first, page 8 of a longer document, is an Eagle-Picher table of its Super "66" insulating cement, "43" finishing cement and One-Cote cement and the private-label names under which they were sold, with date ranges: for example A. P. Green Insulating Cement (5/5/49 to 8/16/71), Owens-Corning's OC-660 and SC-40, North American Refractories, Fitch Recuperator, Armstrong Contracting & Supply, Philip Carey, Harbison-Walker, Union Asbestos & Rubber, GAF and General Refractories. A note says "One-Cote cement did not contain asbestos prior to 1960." The second is a cross-reference chart matching Johns-Manville's Firecrete and Firelite castable refractories to competing products of Babcock & Wilcox, Carborundum, A. P. Green, Harbison-Walker, General Refractories and others.

What it shows

The Eagle-Picher table shows how one maker's asbestos insulating cements reached job sites under many other companies' names, which matters to workers trying to learn what they were exposed to. Many private-label runs end on May 26 or August 16, 1971. The same private-label lists appear in Travelers Asbestos Seminar Booklet (1980) - Eagle-Picher Industries Product Information. The castable chart does not say which products contained asbestos.
