The working portion of the Fabroil gear,which is the trade name of the compressed cotton gear soldby the General Electric Co., is cotton, which is held highlycompressed between steel shrouds or end plates. The cot-ton receives a vacuum-oil treatment, which acts as an in-itial lubrication. These gears have been in use now forover eight years, and about twenty manufacturers of pas-senger automobiles are now using them. They are gener-ally furnished in the form of gear blanks, finished readyfor tooth cutting. The Fabroil gear is generally used asa camshaft or an idler gear and the sizes specified by dif-. timing gears em-on Buick 1921 car. gears are certain to give correct timing and not to jump*a tooth occasionally, as may happen with other No adjustments are necessary. 5.
