Manufacture
The following description of the manufacture of the gas mask at
the Long Island plant is taken from an article by Col. Bradley
Dewey[26]:
“Incoming Inspection—A thorough 100 per cent inspection was
made of each part before sending it to the Assembly Department.
The inspectors were carefully chosen and were sent to a school for
training before they were assigned to this important work. Every
feature found to be essential to the manufacture of a perfect gas
mask was carefully checked.
“The incoming inspection of the flexible rubber hose leading from
the canister to the facepiece can be taken as an illustration. Each
piece of hose was given a visual inspection for buckles or blisters in
the ends or in the corrugations; for cuts, air pockets, or other defects
on the interior; for loose seams where fabric covering was cemented
to the rubber tube; for weaving defects in the fabric itself; and for
careless application of the cement. Special tests were conducted for
flexibility, as a stiff hose would produce a strain on the soldier’s
mouth; for permanent set to insure that the hose was properly cured;
for the adhesion of the fabric covering to the hose; and for kinking
when the hose was doubled on the fingers. Finally each piece was
subjected to a test for leaks under water with a pressure of 5 lbs. per
sq in.
“Each eyepiece and the three-way metal connection to the
facepiece were subjected to a vacuum test for leakage. The delicate
exhalation valve was carefully examined for defects which would be
liable to cause leakage. Fabric for the facepiece was given a high-
tension electrical test on a special machine developed at the plant to
overcome the difficulty met in the inspection of this most important
material. It was of course necessary that the facepiece fabric be free
from defects but just what constituted a defect was the source of
much discussion. The electrical test eliminated all personal views
and gave an impartial test of the fabric. The machine consisted of
two steel rolls between which a potential difference of 4,000 volts
was maintained; the fabric was led through the rolls and wherever
there was a pinhole or flaw the current arced through and burned a
clearly visible hole.
“Preliminary Facepiece Operations—Blanks were died out
from the facepiece fabric in hydraulic presses. Each face blank was
swabbed to remove bloom and the eye washers were cemented
about the eyeholes. The pockets for holding the noseclips were also
cemented to the blanks. The bands which formed a gas-tight seal of
the mask about the face were died out from rubberized fabric to
which a felt backing was attached. The harness consisting of elastic
and cotton tapes was also sewed together at this point.
“Facepiece Operations—The sewing machine operations were
next performed. First the died out blanks were pleated to form the
facepiece. The operator had to register the various notches in the
blank to an accuracy of ¹/₃₂ in. and to locate the stitches in some
cases as closely as ¹/₆₄ in. The band was next sewed to the
periphery of the facepiece after which the harness was attached.
The stitches on the outside of the facepiece were covered with liquid
dope, which filled the needle holes and made the seams gas-tight.
“In addition to the inspection of each operation, the completed
facepiece was submitted to a control inspection to discover any
defects that might escape the attention of the inspectors on the
various operations.
“Assembly Operations—The facepieces were now ready for
assembly and were sent for insertion of the eyepieces, which was
done in specially designed automatic presses. The eyepieces had to
be carefully inserted so that the facepiece fabric extended evenly
around the entire circumference.
“Before manufacture began on a large scale, the most
satisfactory method of conducting each assembly operation was
worked out and the details standardized, so that operators could be
quickly and efficiently trained. No detail was considered too small if it
improved the quality of the mask. The assembly operations
proceeded as follows:
“The exhalation valve was first joined to the three-way metal tube
which formed the connection between the facepiece, flexible hose,
and mouthpiece. Each valve was then tested for leakage under a
pressure difference of a one inch head of water. No valve was
accepted which showed leakage in excess of 10 cc. per min. under
these conditions.
“The metal guard to protect the exhalation valve was next
assembled, followed by the flexible hose. The three-way tube was
then assembled to the facepiece by means of a threaded connection
and the rubber mouthpiece attached. To illustrate the attention to
details the following operation may be cited:
“The contact surfaces between each rubber and metal part were
coated with rubber cement before the parts were assembled. The
connection was then tightly wired, care being taken that none of the
turns of wire should cross and finally the wire was covered with
adhesive tape so that no sharp edges would be exposed.
“The masks, completely assembled except for the canisters, were
inspected and hung on racks on specially designed trucks which
prevented injury in transit, and were delivered to the Finishing
Department.
“Canister Filling—Meanwhile the canisters were being filled, in
another building.
“The chemicals were first screened in such a way that the fine
and coarse materials were separated from the correctly sized
materials. They were then carried on a belt conveyor to the storage
bins, whence they were fed by gravity through pipes to various
mixing machines. A special mixing machine was developed to mix
the carbon and granules in the proper proportions for use in the
canister. The mixed chemicals were then led to the canister-filling
machines. There was a separate mixing machine for each filling
machine, of which there were eighteen in all.
“The can-filling department was laid out in six units. Each unit
had a capacity of 20,000 cans per day. A system of double belt
conveyors was installed to conduct empty canisters to the machines
and carry away the filled ones.
“Each filling operation was carefully inspected and special stops
were placed on the belt conveyors so that a canister could not go to
the next operation without having been inspected. Operators and
inspectors were stationed on opposite sides of the belt. The
chemicals were placed in the canister in three equal layers which
were separated by pads of cotton wadding. The first layer was
introduced from the filling machine (which delivered automatically the
proper volume of chemicals), the canister was shaken to pack the
chemicals tightly, the cotton baffle inserted, the second layer of
chemicals introduced and so forth. On top of the top layer of
chemicals were placed a wire screen and a specially designed
spring which held the contents of the canister securely in place. The
metal top was then fitted and securely soldered.
“Each canister was tested under water for possible leaks in joints
or soldering, with an air pressure of 5 lbs. per sq. in. A test was also
made for the resistance which it offered to breathing, a rate of flow of
air through the canister of 85 liters per min. being maintained and the
resistance being measured in inches of water.
“The filled canisters were then painted a distinctive color to
indicate the type of filling.
“Finishing Department—In the finishing department, the filled
canisters, were conducted down the middle of the finishing tables
and assembled to masks.

Tissot Mask
The French, as has already been pointed out, early recognized
that certain classes of fighting men, as the artillerymen, needed the
maximum of protection with the minimum decrease in efficiency. The
result of this was the Tissot Mask. Before the United States entered
the war, the British standard box respirator had reached a greater
degree of perfection, with far greater ruggedness and portability. It
was therefore adopted as the American standard. At the time of the
invention of the British box respirator and practically up to the time
the United States entered the war, masks were worn only during the
sporadic gas attacks then occurring and only for a brief period at a
time. As the war progressed, the men were compelled to wear their
masks for much longer periods (eight hours was not uncommon). It
was then seen that more comfort was needed, even at the expense
of a little safety.
The principle of the Tissot mask was correct so far as comfort
was concerned, since it did away with the irritating mouthpiece and
noseclip, but the chief danger in the French mask arose from the fact
that the facepiece was made of thin, pure gum rubber. The Research
Division, together with the Gas Defense Division, developed two
distinct types of Tissot masks. The first of these was the Akron
Tissot, the second the Kops Tissot. The best features of these have
been combined in the 1919 Model.

Canister
The canister is radically different from the canisters used in the R.
F. K. and earlier types. In the first place, it is longer, the total length
finished being 8 inches. It has two inlet valves at the top end
protected by a tin cover instead of the single inlet valve at the bottom
of the earlier types. The two inlet valves are each ⅝ inch in diameter
and are made up of square flat valves on the end of a short rubber
tube. The rubber tube is fitted over a short metal tube. Gas-tightness
is obtained both by the pressing of the valve against the round edge
of the metal tube and by the pressure of the edges against each
other. These valves, while delicate, are proving very satisfactory, and
being simply check valves to prevent the air going back through the
canister, they are not vital. In case of failure, the eyepieces would fog
somewhat and the dead air space be increased by that held in the
inlet tube.
The canister consists really of two parts—an outer casing that is
solid and an inner perforated tin casing. Around the perforated tin is
fitted a filter of wool felt ³/₁₆ of an inch in thickness. This wool felt is
very securely fastened by turning operations to solid pieces of tin,
top and bottom, so that no air can get into the chemicals without
passing through the filter. Thus the air coming through the inlet
valves at the top circulates around the loosely fitting outside
corrugated case to all parts of the filter and after passing through the
filter continues through the perforations of the tin into the charcoal
and soda-lime granules.
The chemicals are packed around a central wedge-shaped tube
extending about two-thirds the length of the can. The wedge is
enlarged at the top and made circular where it passes through the
top of the can to connect with the corrugated tube. The wedge-
shaped inner piece is made of perforated tin and is covered with thin
cloth to prevent dust from the chemicals passing into the tube and
thus into the lungs. The cans are filled from the bottom and are
subjected to two mechanical jarring operations in order to settle the
chemicals thoroughly before the spring which holds them in place is
added. The outer tin cap protecting the inlet valves has two openings
on each side but none at the ends of the canister.

Special Canisters
Navy. The early Navy canister is a drum much like the German
canister. The container is a slightly tapered metal cylinder, 9 cm. in
diameter at the bottom. The most satisfactory filling for this drum
consists of two layers, 98 cc. in each, of a standard mixture of
charcoal and soda-lime, separated by cotton wadding pad. The filling
is 6-20 mesh, instead of 8-14 mesh. A later type is shown in Figure
41.
Carbon Monoxide. This canister is discussed in Chapter XI.
Ammonia. Ammonia respirators were needed by the Navy and
also by the workmen in refrigeration plants. Early protection was
obtained by the use of pumice stone impregnated with sulfuric acid.
This had many disadvantages, such as the amount of heat evolved,
the caustic fumes produced, high resistance and corrosion of the
canister. To overcome these, the “Kupramite” canister was
developed. The filling consists of pumice stone impregnated with
copper sulfate. Pumice stone, 8 to 14 mesh, and technical copper
sulfate are placed in an evaporating pan in the ratio of one part by
weight CuSO₄·5H₂O to 1.5 parts pumice, and the whole is covered
with sufficient water to dissolve the salt at boiling temperature. The
mixture is then boiled down with constant stirring until crystallization
takes place on the pumice and the crystals are nearly dry. The
pumice thus treated is then removed from the dish, spread out and
allowed to dry in the air. The fines are then screened out on a 14-
mesh sieve. Care must be taken in the evaporating process that the
absorbent is still slightly moist when taken from the pan.
