Victor Gasket Guide CATALOG (1951)

Out-of-print, hard-to-find softcover book with 384 pages from the Victor Manufacturing & Gasket Co. of Chicago Illinois.   As stated on the Dana Holding Corporation website the Victor Manufacturing & Gasket Company was acquired in 1966.   Due to an onslaught of asbestos lawsuits and in addition to a slump in the automotive industry, the Dana Corporation (aka Dana Holding Corp.) filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in 2006.  In February 2008, the Dana Holding Corp. emerged from bankruptcy after a reorganization plan was approved.  Dana Holding had to set aside $240 million in cash and other assets to cover future asbestos and environmental contamination liabilities, as part of that plan.

Asbestos References:

There are numerous products containing asbestos in this book.  The majority of vehicles/engines listed specify at least one type of asbestos gasket typically it was for a cylinder head or exhaust gasket.  Many of the engine gaskets were used on passenger cars, trucks, tractors, jeeps, motorcycles, locomotives, construction vehicles, airplanes, marine engines and industrial engines. Victor gaskets were used during the war years in military vehicles as well as marine engines.  Photos show the testing and manufacturing of asbestos products with what appears to be no protection for the workers whatsoever.

Military Requirements - Victor products met U.S. Military requirements : "During the periods of conflict the largest part of Victor production has gone to military needs. The builders of heavy duty engines have called upon Victor to supply most of their requirements of cylinder head gaskets. Vast quantities of oil seals, some for the most critical applications, have been supplied the U.S. Government and prime contractors. Air Corps and aviation industry orders have run into hundreds of millions of pieces. The aim has been to satisfy urgent military needs and do as well as possible toward helping maintain the automotive transportation system."

VICTOPAC, "a compressed asbestos or high pressure sheet packing. Long fiber asbestos and small rubber content- a superior grade packing of this type.”  Victopac was made to meet Air Corps Specifications and was supplied to automobile, tractor and engine manufacturers as well as "many other industrial installations requiring high quality compressed asbestos sheet packing gaskets."
