HIGH SPEED METAL COST S453 ALB.
1,724 Sizes of Wire Drawn
 Thinner Than Human Hair

Much interest is being shown throushout New Britain and in near by towns of the address on carboloy to be given at the meeting of the American Society of Mechanical En- gineers at the state trade school Wednesday evening, by G. N. Seiger. technical adviser to the president Of the Carboloy Co.,, of New York.
 Carboloy is a comparatiyly new product and is used only in three New Britain factories and then III small quantities. So valuable is it that while ordinary cutting steel runs from 12 cents to : pound, carpo- Joy is quoted on the market today at s453 a pound. The average steel used in local factories is said to cost about 25 cents a pound, making car boloy almost 2,o0O times as expen- siVe.
 Carboloy is high speed metal used in cutting where ordinarily 1t Is necessary to grind. It is harder than diamonds and so valuable that only small pieces are used as inset teeth in cutting instruments. Even in ma- chine saws, where carboloy is used, only small sections are set in each tooth.
 The development of carboloy came through efforts to find some thing hard enough to be made into wire drawing die in the General Electric lamp works.
 Whereas the human hair is said to be .004 inches in diameter, en- gineers at the Edison plant must have something that will draw 1,124 different sizes of wire, each Of which must be less than three quarter the thickness of a human hair. These are used ill as many dif- ferent types of tungsten filaments. Up until the discovery of carbo- Joy the diamond was the only thing hard enough for use in dies that would draw wire this thin. | The development of carboloy act ually began in 1S96 when scien- tist named Moissan discovered tung- sten carbide. Moissan. to prove that he had developed a means of pro- ducng a temperature equal to that of the sun melted tungsten at tenn perature of 3,4oo degrees, which is far in excess of the hottest temper ature reach by oHy-hydrogen or oxy-acetylene torches.
 i One of his first attempts was through the use of carbon and eEen- tually resulted in tiny hard particles which were said to be carbon elec- 1 trode materials.
 1 During and after the World War the Germans had difficulty in getting diamond for their dies, so their metallurgists resorted to the use of this new product, then known as tungsten carbide.
 Additional steps in fusing and melting in electric furnaces at bril- liant white heat, addition of other chemicals finally developed carboloy, which is said by German chemists to
 be harder than diamondsD and can
 be used in high speed tools for work ing on grass, bakelite Or other hard
 substances. So expensive is it that 1 only small portions are used in New
 Britain factories and then in an ex- perimental manner. It has been
 used here less than two years.
 The meeting will be held in the
 state trade school at o'clock and is open to the public. Mr. Seiger wilt
 illustrate his address with stereopti-
 con slides.
