SHALER
5-MINUTE VULCANIZER
Vulcanize FIRST and make it LAST
Caption in box: ["A Shaler, A Match; Five Minutes, A Patch!"
A special Patch-&-Heat Unit is used for each repair. Each Unit consists of a metal pan containing prepared solid fuel and has a patch of raw rubber attached underneath. Simply clamp a Unit over the puncture, cut or tear and light the fuel. After five minutes take off the pan and throw it away. That's all. The repaired tube is ready to use. It's vulcanized.]
The Shaler 5-Minute Vulcanizer has made vulcanizing easier than sticking on patches - quicker than changing tubes. It is so easy to use that anyone can mend punctures with it. A Shaler heat-vulcanized patch can not loosen or come off. The repair is welded to the tube, the heat and friction of driving will not weaken it.
There is no substitute for the Shaler Vulcanizer for repairing tube punctures, just as there is no substitute for heat vulcanizing in manufacturing tires. More than two million motorists carry the Shaler for emergency use. It's the quickest, as well as the easiest, way to mend punctures - and vulcanized repairs last.
