Abstract: An improved makeready packing for preventing corrosion of cylinders of offset or lithographic printing presses which comprises providing a cylinder surface contacting packing element having a corrosion inhibitor applied thereto in such a manner that the inhibitor will effectively protect the entire surface of the cylinder.

Abstract: An improved sheet material for corrosion inhibition of the surfaces of packaged ferrous metal products which comprises a sheet material substrate having a vapor phase corrosion inhibitor composition applied as a printed pattern of uniformly distributed spaced - areas of predetermined size occupying about 25% of the total area of the treated sheet and consisting of a total dried weight of about 0.226 to 0.302 grams of the inhibitor composition per square foot of the treated sheet.

Abstract: An improved, waterproofed, non-slip, non-skid kraft lumber wrap for covering milled lumber as stacked for shipment on flatbed railroad cars and having a printed application of a high friction material which is applied in the form of a plurality of groups of generally quarter-circular area shapes, the shapes in each group being spaced apart in transverse directions to form a unitary pattern of predetermined total area size which, when repeated on predetermined centers over the central upper side area of the wrap will, when in use, provide an overall non-skid surface for the top surface of the wrap covered lumber stack where workmen are likely to walk during loading and unloading operations, the circular area shapes of each pattern being so arranged that in the overall application of the pattern onto the lumber wrap, the area of an average sized worker's foot, as he walks on the covered lumber stack, will always be in contact with a portion of at least two of the circular shapes comprising the overall applicati
