Soprano Clarinet pads

B17 FERREE’S DE’JUR The oldest Name in Superior Pads

TOP OF THE LINE CLARINET PADS

These are the clarinet pads used by repairmen who want to do an exceptionally unique job for the owner/player they are working for. These De’jur clarinet pads are made from premium selected true double skins and felt. The pads have perfectly selected true double skins, two separate skins. Sides are beveled and thickness is medium just like the regular B21 style. They can be recognized instantly by their peach colored backs. Note: When ordering pad sets please specify pad cup sizes or pad sizes as supplied by you.

B9 NORBECK PADS Manufactured by Ferree’s Tools, Inc. Revolutionary, space-age technology.

Invented by Dr. Edwin Norbeck. This pad is made of high-tech silicone originally developed for use in nuclear physics research as a gasketing material. It remains elastic and functional at temperatures ranging from -130° F to +500° F. Because of its resistance to deteriorating effects of sunlight, moisture, ozone, radiation, oxidization and temperature extremes, its service life is virtually unlimited. The back of the pad is a composition cork so that the pad may be mounted using conventional methods. None of the conventional cements used in normal pad installation will stick to the face of the pad so any cement that accidentally gets onto the face of the pad can easily be removed.

Here is a list of tools by Gary Ferree, for a woodwind bench for most repairing, less than overhauls. Everything is listed as a one of, to keep it simple. Sax pads are quite an expense and are handled separately. Clarinet, Flute and other woodwind pads are more of an individual thing, so that IS the way I handled them, they are here. I have also, in good conscience, put some tools into a “community” bench because the less incidence of repair vs. cost of tooling makes me go this way.

Ferree’s saxophone pads

WHY 2 THICKNESSES?

IS .025” THAT IMPORTANT?

Most of our competitors stock only one thickness of sax pad. We feel this is a big mistake, because it COSTS YOU MORE MONEY in the long run. Most American saxes use the .185” thickness as did the Selmer Paris and a few other foreign saxes. A couple of American saxes and now the Asian ones use the thinner thickness. If you stock only the thinner pad, then every time you work on a horn designed to use thicker pads, you have to spend 4-5 minutes gluing or shimming the pad to make it thicker, so it will hit in the back. On the other hand, if you try to use a thicker pad where a thinner one was designed to go, you must bend down the front of the cup and re-regulate everything to make it or them work. This takes several minutes and with the average shop time being worth about $1 a minute—that’s $4-5 of unbillable time wasted, when you could have just popped in the right thickness pad. That is why Ferree’s stock both the .160” and the .185” thicknesses. That is why “so called budget pad distributors” stock an in-between .170” or .175” pad, which is actually wrong for both situations and costs you money.

ALL OF FERREE’S WOODWIND PADS ARE

PROPORTIONAL IN THICKNESS, THE SAME

AS THE PADS THAT MANUFACTURERS USE ON

NEW INSTRUMENTS. IN OTHER WORDS, THE SMALLER PADS ARE SLIGHTLY THINNER,

THE LARGER PADS ARE SLIGHTLY THICKER.

USING THESE PADS, YOU DO NOT HAVE TO MAKE

“SPECIAL ADJUSTMENTS” TO GET THE PADS LEVEL

1. The most practical and economical way to order pads is by the dozen or 100’s of each size.

2. No orders can be filled for less than a dozen in each size and style, except sax pads larger than 79/32nds or 62.5mm may be ordered in half dozens.

3. The 100 pad price is applicable only when the order is for 100 of the same size and style pad.

4. Try to avoid ordering pad sets. This is costly and not always satisfactory, since there is sometimes a difference in a manufacturers same model, due to different punch press strengths when punching key forms. If you do order sets, YOU MUST MEASURE AND SPECIFY SIZES AND QUANTITIES OF THE PADS to make up the set. We cannot guarantee the fit of pad sets ordered only by brand name. Pad sets are NON-RETURNABLE.

5. Assortments of 200 pads are packaged in one enveloped and are pre-made.

6. Assortments of 500 pads are packaged in individual envelopes by size and are pre-made. SUZY MEASURING PADS

CONVERSION CHART (The closest standard comparison)

We are proud of our sax pads. Our sales indicate that the majority of you are already using our pads. If you are one of the few that isn’t, we hope you’ll try them and see what you’ve been missing. We stock most of our saxophone pads in millimeters as well as 32nds (except for B50, B60, B64, & B66). Measure your pads cups carefully or send us a sample of the sizes you want.

The quality and sizing of Ferree’s sax pads are consistently high. Each pad size has its own special die for cutting and assembling. This does away with the variation in thickness and diameter that most distributors must contend with. When we import a pad we check it to insure that the sizing and quality is as true as possible to the ones we make. Ferree’s is the largest distributor of saxophone pads in the United States. All Ferree’s sax pads are made with 100% woven wool felt, covered with a high grade, specially selected, soft tan leather.

B59 UNIVERSAL SAXOPHONE PADS These pads have a hole pre-punched in the center and are the standard medium .185” (4.7mm)

thick. They DO NOT have any rivets or resonators installed. This allows the repairman to match the

style of resonator to the instrument being repaired. Another important advantage is the diameter of the resonator can be hand selected to cover more of the surface of the pad without touching the tone hole chimney. This creates the maximum amount of resonating surface. Using this series of Universal Sax pads along with a B260 or B265 Universal Resonator kit will eliminate the need to stock several different lines of saxophone pads. Available in dozens and hundreds in 32nd sizes 9 thru 88 and metric sizes, 7 thru 70, by half sizes.

UNIVERSAL RESONATOR KITS

The Universal Resonator Kits have an assortment of metal and plastic resonators along with rivets and installation tools. These kits were designed for Repairmen who want to install the correct style and size resonator in the B58 or B59 Sax Pads. Using the resonators from the kit shown below, along with the B58 and B59 Sax Pads will be particularly useful when replacing only one or two pads on an instrument. When the new pad resonator matches the existing pad resonators a more professional looking job is realized. All of the resonators and rivets can be ready for even the biggest jobs. Both kits come with an attractive storage case to keep the assortment in order. The B260 Economy Universal Resonator Kit contains: 500 rivets for flat steel resonators, 200 long rivets for domed steel resonators, 50 each of 3/8”, 1/2”and 3/4” flat steel resonators, 12 each of the nine sizes of Selmer style brown plastic resonators, 12 each of the nine sizes of Ferree’s cone style resonators 3/8”, 1/2”. 5/8”, 3/4”, 1”, 12 each 1-5/16” domed steel resonators, one each of the D28 Rivet Punch and the D41 Heat Staking Tool.

D73 PHOSPHOR BRONZE FLAT SPRINGS

A few years back the price of the blued flat springs increased dramatically. Immediately, Ferree’s started looking for a less expensive source. Now we’ve found it. The phosphor bronze flat springs are not only less expensive than the blued flat springs, they have several other advantages. ~A special size to fit flutes. ~Phosphor bronze color with a round back (except flute, which has a square back). ~Rust and corrosion resistant. ~Available in “generic sizes” to fit more horns. Can be cut to match the needed size exactly. ~Being used on most of the newer horns, so you will be able to keep your customer’s horn “original equipment.” ~Longer lasting. The springs are available in individual sizes (specify thickness and length), sold in dozens or hundreds. Also, available are two handy assortments, packaged in individual vials, mounted in an attractive wood holder, in 350 and 500 quantities. Order today and start saving money.

D60 NORTON SPRINGS FOR BUESCHER SAXES

The first two digits of the style number indicates the music wire gauge. The second two digits indicate the length in millimeters. This information should help you determine what springs you need. The style numbers available are the longest length of each gauge so you can cut them to length.

D80 STAINLESS STEEL ROUND SPRINGS

These are the round springs like the ones used by most manufacturer’s student instruments today. Rust proof with smoother, more fluid action. Each spring comes pre-flattened on one end. The other end can be cut to the required length.

—It is difficult to rethread, using a finer thread over a coarser thread, as there is less material available and it may easily strip. Therefore, this is not suggested. You can always thread a coarse thread where a fine one was, because there is more material available and you will be in some “new” territory and is the preferred method.

A20 & A21 NEOPRENE BUMPERS

Bumpers are made of neoprene, preferred by some players, because it bounces the valve back faster than cork. A20 Neoprene Bumpers A21 Yamaha Neoprene Bumpers for tuba Cliff’s Tips…… For trombone slide bumper corks, buy the A44 Straight Tube Corks. Slice a washer off to the correct length and install on the inner slides. Sometimes a very tight fit can be eased by cutting the cork ring. The slight gap that results will not hurt and the slide will push the ring tightly into place. To remove these corks easily use the G41A or B Trombone Bumper Remover. Quick, inexpensive and easy.

A54 PREMIUM PRECUT CORK PADS

(Sold by dozen or hundred)

Searching for a perfect portion of sheet cork to make a cork pad has become obsolete. Our A54 Premium Precut Cork Pads have perfect surfaces on the face of the pad. Precut cork pads come from size 6mm thru 17mm and all half sizes in between. Thickness of the cork pads are .100” (2.54mm) for sizes 6mm thru 7.5mm and .110” (2.8mm) for sizes 8mm thru 17mm. The .100” (2.54mm) thickness is so the cork pad can be slipped into the pad cup on oboes without removing the key from the instrument. Minimum order one dozen per size.

This Belt/Disk Sander is a much improved version of our old Z1. The obvious improvement is the addition of an 8” (203mm) disk sander . This m a c h i n e i s ruggedly built

and features tilting tables for both the band sander and disk sander. The Z2 does a number of jobs quickly and easily. For instance, shaping and sanding corks and stringed instrument bridges, grinding the ends of newly cut brass tubing , polishing pits out of brass tubing and a seemingly endless number of other jobs. Features include: automatic belt tension, belt guards, 115 volt 1/3 hp motor, an adjustable arm to permit the use of belts or different lengths and adjustable rubber feet. Z2 Belt/Disk Sander

BUFFING & POLISHING

Ferree’s Industrial quality Belt Sanders are 16” (406mm) deep with a 33” (83.8mm) span. Used primarily for sanding and polishing brass after dents have been taken out and to remove scratches and fine pits before buffing. Frames are made of heavy duty square tubular steel with totally enclosed 3450 rpm motors. Plenty of room to maneuver horns. For small brass, the Z110, 1/3 hp Belt Sander with 1” (25.4mm) belt would be satisfactory. If you w o r k o n m a n y l a r g e r instruments, we suggest either the Z111, 1/2 hp or the Z112, 1 hp. Both use the 1” or

2” (25.4mm or 50.8mm) belts interchangeably. Z111 and Z112 have 2” wide pulleys. PRICE INCLUDES MOTOR AND THREE BELTS (Shipped with no switch or plug so you can wire it for your local electric code).

WALL MOUNT BUFFERS

Our wall mount buffer is good for all buffing chores, but not for heavy production work as it is only 1-1/2 h.p. Not for sousaphones and tubas The shaft is 1-3/8” (34.9mm) in diameter, ground and polished, stress-proof steel. Total shaft length is 40” (1.01m) with 5/8”-11 threads. The shaft extends 12-1/2” (31.75cm) on each side. The shaft accepts Z56 Buffing Shims that allow adjusting for various widths of buffs, so the flange nut is flush with the end of the shaft as required by OSHA. Provisions are provided to mount the Z51BS bracket and Z51A Buffing Hood. The 3/16” (4.8mm) thick steel frame and sheet metal cover totally enclose the belt and pulleys. Lifetime lubricated bearings and the heavy duty 1-1/2 h.p. capacitor motor are included in the price. Both models are shipped without switch or cord, as they must be wired to comply with your local electrical codes. (Can be wired for either 110 or 220 volts) Z71 1-1/2 hp Single Speed (Is convertible to variable speed, see note) Z73 1-1/2 hp Variable Speed. Truck Ship only. 220 lb. ( 100kb)

VARIABLE vs SINGLE SPEED MODELS The variable speed buffers are easily adjusted from 3000 rpm down to 1000 rpm. The advantages of having a variable speed unit are, the slower speed that is available for finer color buffing and the capability of using 10” (254mm) buffs for economic reasons. The buffer speed can be increased as the buffs get smaller so you will still get the same surface feet per minute. A slower speed for color buffing helps the rouge stay on the wheel better, making less mess and the buffs don’t wear out as fast. Color at 2400, hard buff at 2800. See G91R & G91L bushings on page 148.

Ferree’s heavy duty floor model buffers are designed with a 1/4” (6.4mm) steel housing for extra strength and rigidity. The shaft is 1-1/2” (38.1mm) in diameter, ground and polished, stress-proof steel. This shaft size also helps prevent vibration. Total shaft length is 54” (1.37m) with 5/8”-11 threads. The shaft extends 18” (45.7cm) on each side. Floor to the center of the shaft is 40” (1.02m). The belt, pulley and motor are totally enclosed for operator safety. These buffers have provisions for the Z51BL Buffing Brackets. The shaft accepts Z56 Buff Shims that allow adjusting for various widths of buffs, so the flange nut is flush with the end of shaft as required by OSHA. See page 146. Each model is shipped without switch and cord as it must be wired to comply with local electrical codes. The motor is included in the price.

SINGLE SPEED FLOOR MODELS Z100 2hp Single Phase Z101 3hp Single Phase (Single Speed models are convertible to variable speed)

VARIABLE SPEED FLOOR MODELS Z102 2hp Single Phase Z103 3hp Single Phase Z104 3hp Three Phase Z105 5hp Three Phase Approximately 450 lbs,. (204kg) Note on Single Speed Models: The single speed buffers have one speed, which is 2800 rpm. But, they can be converted to variable speed by adding a variable speed unit pulley and belt. The conversion price will be quoted upon request. Buffing hood & bracket see page 150.

BUFFING & POLISHING

Z56 SAFETY FLANGE NUTS Z56 Safety Flange Nuts are used to replace hex and acorn nuts on buffing machine shafts. The flanged design provides OSHA safety for the operator. They are used with the Z55 Spacers to position the buffing wheels near the end of the threads. The Safety Flange Nuts are tightened with a special spanner wrench. There is less chance for clothes or aprons to get caught on exposed threads. The Z56 Safety Flange Nuts are 2” (50.8mm) O.D. and 3/8” (9.5mm) thick. They are threaded 5/8”-11 (15.9mm-11) for right and left hand threads. A set comes with a spanner wrench. IMPORTANT: When installed and spaced properly, the Z56 Safety Flange Nuts will completely cover the exposed threads on the shaft. Z56 Safety Flange Nuts (including wrench) Z56L Nut-Left Hand Thread Z56R Nut-Right Hand Thread Z56W Wrench Only

Z55 SPACERS

The Z55 Buffing Wheel Spacers are used to position the buffs near the end of the threaded shaft so the Z56 Flanged Nut will screw on and still cover the end of the threads. The spacers are 2” (50.8mm) O.D. and have a 5/8” (15.9mm) hole in the center. A set contains three different thicknesses of spacers: 3/8”, 5/8” and 7/8” (9.5mm, 15.9mm,& 22.2mm). Z55 Spacers

Buffing & polishing

R49 KEY BUFFING COMPOUND A special shining compound to be used with BR5A and BR5B chamois buffs. Used to polish nickel clarinet and flute keys still mounted on the body. White color. 1 lb. 14 oz. (.85 kg). R49 Key Buffing Compound

SUGGESTED BUFFING PROCEDURE

Following is a procedure which we have found to be safe and reliable. This procedure is used:

AFTER THE HORN HAS BEEN REPAIRED AND BRITE DIPPED.

Experienced Repairmen may have other methods or be able to skip certain steps, but the techniques detailed below will always work and the buffing compounds used are the same.

STEP 1A This step can be omitted on normal jobs

EMERY

For use on a horn which had a sand blasted, silver plated finish. After stripping, use a R9 Spiral Stitch Buff and Emery Cake to smooth the sandblasted surface in

preparation for buffing (weight~ 3 lbs.-1.4 kg each). R45A Emery Cake, Single R45B Emery Cake, Dozen

STEP 1B TRIPOLI

This is a hard buffing and cutting compound. Used after Step 1A or in place of Step 1A on normal relaquering jobs. Use a R9 or R18 Muslin Buffs. You almost NEVER use a single section. Running 2 prevents flopping, which dents (weight~3 lbs.-1.4 kg). R46A Tripoli Cake, Single R46B Tripoli Cake, Dozen

STEP 2 May be omitted by some buffers

NUWHITE

Sometimes used after Tripoli operation. Works best on white brass, c o m m o n l y c a l l e d , “nickel” (3 lbs-1.4 kg).

R47A Nuwhite Cake, Single R47B Nuwhite Cake, Dozen

STEP 3 RED ROUGE

Color buffing is the final process and the most important one for a professional job. It brings out the finest, richest color of the brass and removes minute scratches. Use R7, R12 or R8A, R8B for coloring. Some prefer muslin color buffs, some prefer flannel color buffs. It is personal, depending on the finish wanted. Red also works on smooth silver plate (weight~3 lbs-1.4 kg). R48A Red Rouge Cake, Single R48B Red Rouge Cake, Dozen

STEP 4 Following the red rouge buffing, the horn should be thoroughly degreased. The best way to degrease a horn is with a hot vapor spray degreaser. This is the fastest, most complete method of removing buffing residue from a horn. Removing this residue is very important, because lacquer WILL NOT STICK to a greasy surface. After completing the necessary steps listed above, the horn is ready to be assembled and lacquered. Use a clean pair of H1 Assembly Gloves to avoid finger prints when handling the horn.

Z35 PORTABLE AIR BUFFER

This portable air operated buffer is handy for cutting down “make ready” time on brass overhauls. It has a special spindle for small buffs for those

hard-to-reach solder spots and marks. No more scraping. Terrific on large instrument overhauls such as French Horns, Baritones or Sousaphones. Used in many instrument factories. Very practical if you do much brass overhauling. Hooked to your air compressor, this tiny high speed buffer goes 16,000 rpm with 1/3 hp capacity. Watch the solder disappear. A 2” (50.8mm) buff at this speed gives 8350 surface feet (2545 surface meters) per minute. Compare this to an 8” (203mm) butt at 2800 rpm which gives only 5850 surface feet (1783 surface meters) per minute. This tool has a handy lever control and a built in hang up hook. Requires 4 cu. ft. (113.3 cu. L.) of air per minute at 90 to 100 lb (6.3 to 7 kg/cm²) pressure. Price includes four R10 buffs. Z35 Portable Air Buffer R10 Extra 2” (50.8mm) Buff Z35S Shaft only

Lacquering & cleaning equip.

SILVER STRIP FORMULA Add 4 oz (113.4 gr) salt peter (potassium nitrate) to each gallon (3.79 L) of sulphuric acid. Needs to be stored in the plastic lined barrel. This is used to remove silver plate from silver plated instruments. You will then be down to the original brass finish. Now the instrument may be buffed and lacquered. Be careful not to leave it in the solution too long or it will become pitted.

WOOD LACQUERING MANDRELS Used to hold an i n s t r u m e n t d u r i n g lacquering with less chance of dropping the instrument. Also, handy for storing instruments in the lacquer room between coats.

O4 For cornet or trumpet O5 For trombone (Saxophones and larger instruments should be hung instead of held.)

Z27 PLASTIC FLUTE TRAY This deep tray will accommodate most flute bodies and parts for dipping in Z25 Tarnish Remover. It measures 15” X 3” X 2” (381mm x 76mm x 50.8mm). Z27 Plastic Flute Tray

Z19 LIME AND SCALE REMOVER Z19 Lime and Scale Remover was designed to completely replace acid based materials in lime and scale removal. Deposits are removed rapidly and effectively with a minimal attack on brass, copper, aluminum, etc.. Great for slides and valves that are corroded with lime. Shipped in crystal form, just add water. Mix is 1 lb (.45 kg) to 1 gallon (3.79 liters) of water. Z19A Lime and Scale Remover, 1 lb (454 g) Z19B Lime and Scale Remover, 10 lb (4.5kg) Z19C Lime and Scale Remover, 25 lb (11.3kg)

X50 CHEESECLOTH Cheesecloth is the best and most economical material there is for cleaning valve casings and trombone slides. A continuous piece of cloth is very useful for a brass technician because of the different lengths needed for cleaning trombone slides and valve casings. Dirty cloth can be snipped off and clean cloth can be rethreaded through the cleaning rod quickly for the next cleaning operation. This box of continuous cheesecloth will eliminate waste and save money. X50 Cheesecloth. Full box of 80 yds (3.15m) X51 Cheesecloth. Specify yards wanted

X56 COTTON FLANNEL This cotton flannel has nap on both sides of the cloth and is woven to be extra soft. This is the type of cloth used to wipe spots off brass instruments after degreasing and prior to lacquering. Some polyester types of cloth will scratch the brass. With this flannel you will never have that problem. Excellent for color ragging with R48 Red Rouge. Works great when using Silvo or Wenol polishes. X55 Cotton flannel by the bolt of 50 yds (45.72m) by 27” (68.6cm) X56 Cotton flannel, specify the yards wanted

O6 TUBING CLEANER BALLS Brushes are fine for cleaning the inside of brass tubing, but getting material out of the bottom bow in a trombone slide or other curved tubing is another thing. A brush with bristles stiff enough to remove the stubborn deposits probably wouldn’t make the curve without putting scratches in the bore. Here’s a better way. Put a small quantity of these O6 Tubing Cleaner Balls inside dirty tubing. Add some lukewarm, detergent water and shake. You may have to repeat this process a few times, to get the tubing thoroughly cleaned. The balls can be reused many times. We’ve put 600 of these brass balls in a handy plastic storage bottle. We think you’ll be pleased with the job they do. O6 Tubing Cleaner Balls **New item number** (old number was P1)

CYLINDRICAL TANKS- BARREL LINERS

Both the 30 and 55 gallon sizes of these barrel liners have a cuff type flange to cover the barrel edge. NOTE: NOT self-standing! MUST be used inside the correct sized steel barrel for support.

SUGGESTED LACQUER ROOM LAYOUT

The drawing above is a suggested lacquer room layout. We have used the basic design as described below several times in different buildings. The overall space needed is about 10 ft. (3 meters) by 12 ft. (3.66 meters) OR about 6 ft. (1.8 meters) by 20 ft. (6 meters) if you put the above drawing in halves, end to end. The lacquer room must be basically, air tight. The exhaust fan MUST be on an outside wall. You can mount air filters over, beside, or in the door to draw fresh, warm, dry air into the room and filter out the dust and lint at the same time. IF you can, you may mount the filters in the ceiling, where they are NOT in the booth. The room is divided by a wall that extends two-thirds of the way across the room. This wall confines the spray to a small area. On the other side of the divider, put racks to hold our O4 thru O5 lacquer mandrels. Place instruments on these mandrels after spraying or while waiting to be sprayed. With either layout, you don’t have to open and shut the door during spraying time. This avoids raising a lot of dust and lint. The baffle on the spraying side is important because it creates a venturi effect. NOTE: All lacquer, Thinner, Retarder, and Dye MUST, by law, ONLY be shipped by UPS Ground or Truck….They are Considered Hazardous. We are NOT able to ship these items Overseas due to Regulations. Can ship to Canada by UPS ONLY!

X70 FERREE’S CLEAR LACQUER An excellent quality cellulose lacquer. The same lacquer used by many band instrument manufacturers on instruments too large to use bake-on type epoxy lacquer. Excellent color retention, better perspiration resistance and surface hardness than older types of lacquer. Use on brass, nickel and silver. We do NOT recommend buying larger than gallon lots of lacquer, unless you have a very large volume of work. Should be used up within 6-8 months for best results. X70A 1 qt. (.95 L) Clear Lacquer X70B 1 gal. (3.79 L) Clear Lacquer X70C 5 gal. (18.9 L) Clear Lacquer

X71 FERREE’S THINNER (Used with X70 Lacquer)

X71A 1 qt. (.95 L) Thinner X71B 1 gal. (3.79 L) Thinner X71C 5 gal. (18.9 L) Thinner

X72 FERREE’S RETARDER To be used when the humidity is between 50% to 90% (if higher, wait until another day to lacquer). This retarder will slow the drying action to prevent blushing (whitening) of lacquer. X72A 1 qt. (.95 L) Retarder X72B 1 gal. (3.79 L) Retarder

FERREE’S SPECIAL GOLD DYE No more light and dark dyes needed, this new concentrate is all you will need. This 2 ounce concentrate is available in place of the light and dark dyes that are now discontinued. X73 Dye Concentrate

CLIFF’S TIPS… Always use 1/2” (12.7mm) galvanized pipe between your air compressor tank and your air compressor regulator to cut down resistance. The same type of pipe should also be used between the compressor and the air regulator for a torch.

Lacquering & cleaninG

Here is a lacquer mixture we have used successfully for over 50 years.

FIRST TWO COATS 2 qts. (1.9 L) X70 Lacquer 1-1/2 qts (1.42 L) X71 Thinner 1 pt (473 ml) X72 Retarder Add gold color if desired

THIRD “BRIGHT” COAT Take equal parts; one of the above mixture and one of the thinner and mix them together.

FERREE’S PERMA-LAQ AN EPOXY TYPE LACQUER

Ferree’s Perma-Laq is an epoxy modified lacquer developed for use where chemical and abrasion resistance as well as clearness are primary requirements. This is the same lacquer used by many of the band instrument manufacturers. Perma-Laq can be used in any repair shop, small or large. It can be sprayed with the same gun, at the same pressure, used for the regular cellulose lacquer. No additional lacquering equipment is needed. Remember, clean gun after every use. Perma-Laq is premixed epoxy lacquer. Recommended mixture is: add 5% catalyst and 5-10% reducer to the Perma-Laq. Reducer needs vary according to local humidity. After lacquering the horn, bake it at 200-250 degrees F (93.3°-121.1°C) for 20 minutes. BAKING IS MANDATORY.

ONE COAT APPLICATION ADVANTAGES OUT-WEIGH THE HIGHER PRICE

Perma-Laq is more expensive, but requires only one coat. This saves on both time and material and cuts down the possibility of spraying errors. This system eliminates time in the lacquering room. *TRANSFER TO GLASS CONTAINER WHEN

YOU RECEIVE* X80A 1 qt. (.95L) Perma-Laq X80B 1 gal. (3.79 L) Perma-Laq X80C 5 gal. (18.9 L) Perma-Laq X81A 1 qt. (.95 L) Perma-Laq Reducer X81B 1 gal. (3.79 L) Perma-Laq Reducer X81C 5 gal. (18.9 L) Perma-Laq Reducer X82A 4 oz (118 ml) Perma-Laq Dye X82B 1 pt (473 ml) Perma-Laq Dye X83A 1 pt (473 ml) Perma-Laq Catalyst X83B 1 qt. (.95 L) Perma-Laq Catalyst

Don’t have an oven to bake Perma-Laq? An old refrigerator with metal insides and a hook installed through the top makes a good oven. 3-275 watt infrared bulbs inside will provide all the heat you need to bake the lacquer. Set an oven candy thermometer inside the box or through the door to be sure.

Like all epoxies, Perma-Laq has a 8-10 months “pot life”, if properly stored We don’t package it until the order is received. Transfer it to a glass container as soon as you receive it. Store it at room temperature out of direct sunlight. Using these precautions, you may extend the shelf life as long as one year. Don’t order more than you can use in 6 months.

CLIFF’S TIPS...

Most chemicals cannot ship by air. We can ship them by UPS ground only. Lacquer, etc. cannot be shipped overseas.

J60 LOW TEMPERATURE SILVER SOLDER KIT

The J61 Solder contains only silver and tin. This makes it a much stronger solder although it melts easily. The unique feature of Ferree’s J61 Silver Solder is although it melts at 430°F (221°C), it does-n’t flow until 535°F (279°C). This gives a plastic range of 105°F (40.6°C) which makes it very easy to fill a hole. It is unlike other suppliers brands of solder which melt and flow freely at the same temperature. We are making this solder available in a kit, which includes 8oz (227g) or about 45ft (13.7m) of J61, 1/16” (1.6mm) O.D. and 4 oz (118ml) of the special J62 flux to use with it.

SOLDERING CLAMPS

This clamp is designed to be used with the largest tubas as well as small instruments. Its distinguishing features include a threaded shaft that is long enough to eliminate the need to disassemble the clamp and reverse the slide, one bearing pad that rotates to give a solid bearing surface when soldering nonparallel tubes or tapered bells and tubing, and a bearing pad that can be adjusted up or down to compensate for different tubing diameters or placements that are being clamped. Although this clamp is designed to be used with larger brass instruments it will provide excellent solder clamping for smaller instruments. Note that the bottom of the heavy-duty slide fitting has been tapered to allow fitting between slide tubes when necessary. N19 Soldering Clamp
