ABSTRACT:
Flooring material useful in many environments is formed of a plurality of strips of used automobile and/or truck tire casings by an improved method wherein all of the original tread rubber remaining on the used tire casing and the belt plies which extend circumferentially of the tire casing along with the outer rubber or resilient material and the inner graphite-carbon rubber or resilient material of the tire casing are removed and strips of the remaining body of the tire casing are abraded to expose the tire cords of the body plies. The strips are then assemblied in side by side relation and bonded to one another and cut into appropriately sized flooring "tiles". The novel method insures bonding of the strips to one another by forming the strips of the inner portions of the body plies of the tire casing with uniform rubber or resilient material surfaces and further insures the successful bonding of the completed flooring material to a concrete floor or the like.
