Patent Bronze Metal Sheathing
MANUFACTURED BY THE
NeaU Bedford Copper Co.

IN the manufacture of Yellow Metal Sheathing, it
has been the universal practice hitherto as II still
is with other manufacturers to mmerse the sheets,
after ali rolling is done, in acid bath. The effect
sougbt and obtained by this process is to give the
metal The fine yellow color to which it its dis
tinctive name.
Rnt this effect is of necessity, attended by results
Injurious to the metal The hard and highly polish
ed surface formed the sheets by successive heat
ing and cooling and the action OF The rolls is re-
moved, and surface left in its stead-bright indeed
but rough pimpled and unequally corrOded and con-
slderab1y softer han the surface removed.
No one can doubt that any given sheet of sheath
ing metal must be better with hard, smooth sur
faca than with softer and rougher surface.
This Improvement in the art of sheathing ships has
been ecured by Letters Patent OF the United States
to the New Bedford Copper Company.
The composition of this metal Is exactly the same
rs that OF the yellow or Muntz metal the sole differ
ence being in the SUI face finish. 1t is believed that
THIS is very important and will add months to the
wear OF the metal. w '-'
