Tradesman Describes His Exposure to Asbestos Gaskets While Employed at Carborundum

Our client worked at Carborundum for 40 years and was diagnosed with mesothelioma in 2005 as a result of his exposure to asbestos containing materials. During his career, he worked as a machinist journeyman and then millwright at the Walmore Road Carborundum plant. In the above video deposition, our client explains how he was exposed to asbestos by the application and removal of asbestos-containing gaskets. He explains that dust and fiber released from the gasket material during the application and removal process is what ultimately contributed to development of mesothelioma.
