[QUOTE="johnsattuk, post: 512935, member: 183150"] As prev., one big advantage of asbestos is it's affinity to cement, individual fibres, which are very small dia. and thus cause problems by being breathable, do not readily disasociate from the cement. Any type of dust can be a hazard. I know you use a mask when drilling fixing holes :) Guttering and the associated fittings, especially the larger sizes, were big business, and also side cladding on industrial buildings. Pressure pipes were very big business, and were manufactured up to about 18" dia. being used for drinking water , sewage, gas, cooling water on power stations etc. Water storage cisterns were also manufactured in various sizes, an offshoot of this being garden planters up to about 5' dia. in a variety of shapes, clover leaf etc. [/QUOTE]
