Westinghouse Glue Pots and Solder Pots
W
The great advantage of Westinghouse electrically heated glue pots over the oid wet-type pots is so obvious that industrial establishments the world over are rapidly installing them.
Westinghouse electrically tested glue pots are easily connected and started; they quickly bring the glue to the light temperature and keep it there without attention; they cannot burn the glur; they save time, attention and labor.
For melting solder, Itad, tin, babbits and similar metals, Westinghouse electric solder pots are unequalled. They are safe and economical, and by keeping the metal in an eveu molten stage
Kadire a strong joint.
Westinghouse electric glue pots and soldering pots are built with characteristic Westing house workmanship Like all Westinghouse products they are ruggedly made and will stand
