T2 Advertisements. FLIGHT FEBRUARY 5-ra, 1942. Meta/ast/k — what is it? It is a material and a process. Its composition is metal and rubber—the one inseparably bonded to the other. Its function is to eliminate, absorb or damp, as the case may be, unwanted vibrations, oscillations, and their attendant noises in all types of plant, machinery, motors, coachwork, etc. As a process it can be applied to most metals, not excepting those somewhat intractable materials— aluminium and magnesium, and to synthetic rubber, in place of natural rubber, where heat, oils and oily vapours are the conditions to be encountered. Its outstanding advantage is that the A Metalasiik "Z" Type Coupling. A General Purpose "F.S." Type Mounting. rubber is " free." By " free " rubber is meant that the rubber is bonded to the metal and not mechanically locked by means of bolts, rivets, friction, etc., leaving unhampered its inherent characteristics. As a medium for " mounting " it is ideal. Its applications are innumerable and cover all types of stationary and mobile engines, motors and machinery — particularly machinery engaged in high-precision metal- work, and, in short, domestic machinery and all mechanical and electrical equipment, from ships and locomotives to the most delicate laboratory recording instruments. It is, too, peculiarly suitable for transmitting rotational movement, since it is completely silent and requires neither lubrication nor adjustment. Vibration being a destructive force, and noise a disturbing and undermining influence, it rests with each manufacturer, in his own interests, to investigate at once the possibilities of Metalastik in relation to his Works and productions, so all who are troubled with noise from engines, plant, or machinery, are invited to place their problems before us — we are at their service freely and without obligation.
