PRODIUM PROCESS RUBBER
A new discovery that gives toughness to tires
Rubber, when used in tire treads, is compounded with other substances the c'haracter and formula of which determine larjjciy the mileage that the tire will uive.
Prodium Process produces an entirely new rubber com¬ pound, discovered and controlled exclusively by The Re¬ public Rubber Company, and used only on Republic tires.
This new rubber has a wonderful tensile strength, is re¬ markably resilient, is practically chip proof and cut proof, wears down as ev nl;- as fine steel, has great heat resisting qualities and anti-skid properties.
Cict a .sample of Republic Prodium Process Rubber, Try to break it. (Oiiviiu e yourself that this is the toughest, stroiiecbt material ever used on an automobdc tire.
