I'ri.LEY C"oVKRiN(!, aiul, after tiiorough testing, the same have purchased the ('anadian
Patents and tlie ^ole rights to manufacture and sell the san\e in the Dominion of Canada. We
invite your full investig'ition with it, knowing that if you do its merits will immediately cause its
sale. Correspondence solicited.
THK DOMINION' LKA'rHKK i OVKRKD F^ULLKY CO.
Chatham, Ontario. .January 9t'i, I SO.'i,
In the folloujing pages uue uiill endeavop to demonstrate to you the advisa-
bility of Covering youn Pulleys by oup Patent Ppocgss, thereby
enabling you to
TRANSMIT MORE POWER
uiith the same belt, running at the same tension, also being a complete
preventative of the
SLIPPING OF BELTS.
The above statement being true, the question of doing more mork Luith a
given a«iount of fuel is solved.
Seeure the right to Cover your Pulleys by our Patent Process and you ixiill
poon observe a Great Saving in
BELTS, STRING LEATHER, OIL AND BABBIT METAL
by removing the Strain on the Belts and the IVIaehinery mill give better
satisfaction.
We keep in stock Lieather especially adapted for Covering Pulleys.
ijh:A.^ri±hzii c'(>viGUii:i> i^rji.r.i^:vs
_^TA VK long been demonstrated as a benefit to power users, but only in a few cases and by
^^^ crude methods has it been adopted. With our process we have the only perfect cover-
ing for all si/.es of pulleys, having been successful on pulleys from 2 inches to 18 feet in diameter.
Our secret lies in the preparation of the iron, by which we can cement our leather around a pulley
so solid that it cannot be removed except by cutting the leather away, Our leather is especially
prepared so that it will not take ;\ hard, flinty polish like ordinary leather. Every particle of the
leather is cemented down solid and seemingly becomes a part of the pulley. The old, expensive
process of riveting leather on, only a few points being fastened, with a heavy strain the leather
will stretch and soon come off, the rivets will work loose»and cut the belt, rendering it nearly
worthless before half its usefulness is given. Leather riveted on must be stiff and hard, and soon
becomes little better than iron for transmission of power. Ours is soft and pliable. The time and
skill of riveting on leather is so great that mechanics avoid the task. By our process one man and
a helper.can easily put on from 50 to 100 square feet per day, with but little experience. We
invite your attention to the benefits of our covering herewith presented, as well a^ a few of our
many letters of endorsement.

Dear Sir: — We have your letter Dec. 30 in regard to ti.e pulley you covered for us more than
a year ago, and although it runs at a terrifically liigh speed ai\d has been idle scarcely one working
hour since the work was completed, we find, on examination to-day, that it is practically in as
t'ood shape as when first applied. We are able to do a tjreat deal more work on our planer,
takiuLT a heavier cut, and doing altogether better work on account of the even motion secured by
the splendid grip the belt has on the pulley. We cannot too strongly recommend this covering
wherever it is desirable to take advantage of the fullest possible power from overloaded, high-
runnii.g machinery. We sht.uld estimate the increased driving power from the pulleys we have
covered at least 20 per cent. The pulleys we have since covered for ourselves are giving eqiuvlly
good satisfaction. Very truly yours,
The i'ATTKRsoN (!fe Hro. Co., Ltd.

Dear Sir: Wv have paid particular attfution to the pulleys yon coveied for us, and have to
acknowledge the principle a good or.e. We can run the Ixjit.s much loosei' <ui them than we can
on the l)are iron, and accomplish the same result : this we consi'ler a great a<lvantage. There is
only one uncertainty in our minds, and that is as to how long the covering will adhere to the iron
witliout renewing or restieking. Perhaps you can explain this satisfactorily. Otherwise we are
well pleased with the covered pulleys. ^'ouis truly,

Is a great .sourot^ of annoyance. To over.^ome this, various nostnnnes, sucii us belt L'lease, resin,
soap, etc., have been used. I'liey are all very injurious to the belt. To cover the pulley is
the only true solution of this problem. In all fast and even slow running machinery, laboring
heavy, tlieie is more or less slipping of the belt. We have found as high as KU per cent, constant
slip, w ich was entirely unknown to the operator; and, in many cases, as high as 40 per cent.;
while in most cases the constant slip averages from 4 to II per cent. Now, if we can overcome
this slipping the question of doliiff tnori' n'ork n-ifh a ifinii amoniif of fnej Is so/nd.; for it takes
power to overcomeslipping Thus, suppf>se, there is a constant slip of but .") per cent, of main
belt (which, l)y the way, is a very low supposition'), means that you are using "> per cent, more
steam than is necessj'.ry to do the work. We have sawmills that are cutting fjom l.') to 25 per
cent, moic lumber per day after the a'"bor pulley was covered, with no additional expense except
the handling of the lumber. In fact there is not a machine made that runs witli btilts Miat cannot
be ijnproved by covering the pulleys, for there is more or less slipping which we can entirely over-
c<mie. Iiivestigate this and write us.

your agent claimed for it. It does not show the slightest sign of coming off, even on the tight
pulley of the fast and loose pairs. We tried it first on a machine that wc^s always a trouble from
the belts slipping and the head slowing down, and were so well satisfied that we at once covered
all the small driven pulleys in the factory. We now have steadier running machines and with

Is ii heavy expense in a large factory. Auytliing that will lessen tins expens-' should l)e hailed
with delight. The life of a belt depends upon the amount of wc.rk it has to perform ; th
nnm.<'fxm,nj strain it is sul)jected to, and the wear and tear it is subjected to from slipping. Th
first of these will remain the same in all eases, while in the second we will remove nearly twice
the an.6unt of strain on the following side of the belt, as the tight side besides doing the work has
to balan(.'e the str,iiii on the slack side. Belis can be run very slack after we have covered the
pulley. Then as there is no slipping there can l)b but little wear and Uyay. And as you do not
have to use any injurious substances, such as resin, soap, etc , there is no reason why the belt will
not last twice as long. The same holds true \\ ith lace leather, for there is, not as much strain on
the strings, and they are not cut into by the belt slipping on the pulley. What can be more
annoying than for a man to go througii his factory and see fron» (me to half a do/en machines
standing idle while the men are re-lacing tlte belt or re-babbiting the machine caused from tight
belts ? When a box gets hot the tirst remedy generally applied is large quantities of oil. Remedy'

Dear Sirs:~A{ter thoroughly testing your patent process of covering pulleys with leather, we
can heartily recommend same as a belt saviiig appliance to all who are using machinery. In our
judgment it saves, at least, one-quarter of the power it formerly retiuired to run the machinery.
We now run the belts loose; but without the covering we were compelled to run them very tight,
which resulted in straining belts, melting boxes out, occasioning bi-eak downs and delays.

The covering put on our })ulleys so far gives entire satisfaction. It is certaiidy a sa\ing of
V)elts. We were able to do better work with onedialf the weight on uur tightener. If it proves to
be dUi'able on many pulleys, no mill man can afford to do without it.
