PYREX Radio Insulators

Prevent Leakage and Eddy Losses
RADIO energy in all its original volume is delivered by antennae equipped with *PYREX Insulators.
     Signals from even the most distant stations reach the detector unweakened by leakage or eddy losses.
     The special glass from which PYREX Radio Insulators are made has the lowest power loss of any known substance suitable for antenna insulation, with the exception of fused quartz. The smooth hard surface prevents accumulation of dirt and soot.
     Specified wherever perfect insulation is of vital importance -- in the U. S. Navy,
Coast Guard, Lighthouse and Air Mail -- and in the country's largest broadcasting stations.
     Write for "PYREX Industrial Glass Products" -- a complete treatise on the properties, characteristics, and unique applications of special glass products made by Corning Glass Works.
