Abstract:
The schedule referred to in these letter patent, and making part of the same, containing a definition in the words of the said Edward Mott himself of his improvement being anti-attrition compound.
Take one pound of hogs lard or bear grease refined; one pound of lead, washed over, dried, and pulverized; three gills of vegetable or anniseed oil; and twenty drops of the essential oil of an aromatic; these reflective proportions, or as is hereafter described. The variation of the seasons has some influence in the application of the compound it will become expedient to vary the quantity of the black lead, and oil, agreeable to such variation, sometimes to put an addition and at other times a deduction of the proportions here stated, and then made warm and all mixed well together are fit for use. In some instances, the supply of the compound to the part of friction is to be run through a small aperture, in which case it will be necessary to make the compound so warm as to bring it into a fluid state so as to run through small holes in the part required.
This anti attrition compound is meant not only as a prevention of wear and tear, but a preservation to such parts as it may be applied to whether cordage (?), wood, iron, or any other metals; whether in use or laid up. |
