tter.. because IT'S WELDED The modern milk can is better because it's welded. Whether the can is made of aluminum or stainless steel from the standpoints of cleanliness, sturdiness and serviceability it is easy to see why the use of welded joints is beneficial. Welding has made many good products better milk cans, automobiles, airplanes, radios, refrigerators, streamlined trains and a thousand other things. This modern method of manufacture is applicable to the widest range of materials steel and iron, aluminum, copper, brass and all other alloys and metals, even platinum. It is ideal for use where strong, smooth, invisible joints are necessary for enameling, for cleanliness or for appearance. Tomorrow's engineers will be expected to know how to apply this modern metalworking process. Several valuable and interesting technical booklets describing the application of the oxy-acetylene process of welding and cutting in design, construction and fabrication are available from Linde offices in principal cities.
