Armaturo Asb Paper was a Johns-Manville asbestos paper.1,2 An insurance company's 1981 list of asbestos products, compiled from other companies' answers in lawsuits, files it among papers, felts and blankets, but prints an "X" instead of a year in both of its date columns.1
A 1990 EPA notice that published what Manville reported names Armaturo in a group of asbestos papers and rollboards, with Doublex, Fibroid, Long Fiber, Microbestos, Non-Burn and Welding Paper, and gives its figures only for the group as a whole.2 For that group it says production ran from 1900 to 1965, and the papers contained 40 to 99% asbestos with 1 to 60% inorganic binder.2
