Rescue Saw Blade
New Rescue Saw Blades for police and fire department rescue work, demolition, salvage, and the construction trades, are offered by The Abrasive Division of New England Carbide Tool Company, Inc., Peabody, Massachusetts. The blades, made for gasoline powered rescue saws, are available both for metal and masonry.
New England calls them TRI-PLY blades, and has added them to a traditionally fine line of well-known abrasive cutting blades and carbide-tipped masonry bits.
Made of resinoid bonded silicon carbide, the masonry blades are reinforced by three, rugged, fiberglass mats for maximum safety. The blades allegedly will make short work cutting through brick, slate, masonry, stone, concrete, asphalt, etc.
TRI-PLY blades are available in 12" dia. x ½" thick in all popular arbor hole sizes. For more information, contact The Abrasive Division, New England Carbide Tool Company, Inc., Peabody, Massachusetts 01960.

Masonry Filler Coat
Ful-Fil, a new ready-mixed and ready-to-use masonry filler coat which can be airless sprayed, has been introduced by Napko Corporation.
The new filler is a latex emulsion material for interior and exterior priming, filling and surfacing of all types of unpainted porous blocks and other masonry building surfaces. Ful-Fil fills surface voids and provides a tight, hard, dense surface for maximum adhesion, holdout and coverage of the finish coats.
Ful-Fil can be applied to damp and fresh masonry surfaces, and it requires no primers or sealers. In addition, the new ready-mixed filler can be used as needed and the container can be re-closed for future use without danger of spoilage or waste.
Unlike conventional powder-type block fillers, Ful-Fil can withstand weathering up to six months without overcoating. Maximum productivity, application speed and economy are achieved when the new Napko filler is airless sprayed on masonry surfaces (powder-type fillers can't be successfully applied with an airless spray). Ful-Fil also can be applied with brush or roller. It contains no abrasive materials.
Additional product information about Ful-Fil ready-mixed masonry filler may be obtained from Napko Corporation, P.O. Box 14509, Houston, Texas 77021.
Lightweight Bull Float
A rugged lightweight magnesium bull float, ten years in the making, has been introduced by Goldblatt Tool Co. The dense, compact magnesium works the slab smoothly and resists concrete build up. This combined with its light weight makes the tool the easiest floating bull float ever developed. The long-wearing magnesium blade has a reinforced rib backing for added strength. Firmly attached to the rib is a heavy-duty handle bracket with non-slip teeth and thumb-screw lock.
The floats come in the industry's standard 8" width. They are available in lengths of 42" for $31.00; 48" for $34.00; 54" for $37.00 and 60 for $40.00.
For further information on the new magnesium bull floats and the molded thread long handles adaptable to them in various lengths and diameters write: Mr. Si Kraft, Sales Manager, Goldblatt Tool Co., 511 Osage, Kansas City, Kansas 66110.
