106 (Eagle-Picher)

106 was an Eagle-Picher finishing cement, which the company's sworn answers in two lawsuits, given in 1969 and 1970, describe as "A hard, fire protective finishing cement for indoor and outdoor application."1,2,3 The answers list its composition as Luminite cement, asbestos and clay.2,3

The answers give 1948 as the year it was first made, and a footnote says it was "Discontinued in the 1950's."2,3 Elsewhere the same answers say Eagle-Picher sold "106 Finishing Cement" to its contractors and distributors before 1960, but not after.2,3

An insurance company's 1981 list of asbestos products, compiled from other companies' answers in lawsuits, gives it as made from 1948 to 1955, and gives 28 in the column read as percent asbestos.1
