Tire Repairing and Vulcanizing

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. Tire repairing has rapidly come to the front as an important part of the automobile industry. The available books on the subject, how ever, have not filled the demands. The need for a clear cut and yet complete book, taking up all the phases of tire repairing, has been before us, and this need was clearly brought out when the training of U. 8. Army men was started in. Minneapolis by the Minneapolis Tire Dealers Association and Dunwoody Institute. This book has been developed to help fill this need. It treats the various problems which come before the tire repairman and gives him the best practice on the different repair jobs. It is not only valuable to the beginner but to the experienced tire repairman as well. The chapters on cord tire repairs and cost data will be particularly interesting to the high grade repairman or the shop owner. The man just starting up a business will be interested in the sh0p equipment chapter. A generous number of cuts explain in detail the tools and the operations. The material contained in this book represents only the most approved methods of tire repairing. Methods formerly used but now out of date have been eliminated. The author is indebted to the various tire manufacturers for the use of illustrations, and to the Minneapolis Tire Dealers Association, which has given valuable assistance in the development of this work.
