There are two types of punch pins,  hardened steep and carbide. Teletype 
used hardened steel and they  need to be lubricated just like any steel puch.


Carbide does not need to be lubricated and  can even punch steel, it does 
wear but not as much as steel.


If you put mylar (actually a  sandwich of mylar and paper or mylar and 
aluminum) in a punch that has  steel pins your punch's pins are toast and even
the block (the stationary part) throat is  worn to where even new pins will 
no longer work. It may take more than one  roll to do it but it will.


Not as bad as mylar but non  lubricated paper will do the same thing, it 
just take a few more rolls to  do damage, how many .. as far as I'm concerned
less than one.

Back in the days of  old with our monster TALLY punch that wailed  on mylar 
as some unheard of speed it  would punch anything....
 
But  yea..  we also  need to  find a source of  oiled  tape I was always  
told  for the Teletype  machines...  ( correct me if I am in Error.Ed#

Looking for a supplier of 1" oiled paper tape for the M33.  Previously I'd 
found _www.westnc.com_ (http://www.westnc.com/)  as a  vendor, but they now 
only carry un-oiled 1" tape. I've seen sellers on  ebay and elsewhere with 
as-is old stock, but have heard it can be  hit-or-miss if it's not been 
stored properly. 

West NC do  carry oiled 11/16" tape - is this the correct stuff for an 
M28-KTR and  M14-ROTR? Currently we have several rolls of un-oiled tape, but 
would like  to be running the correct stuff through it - have only ran a few 
dozens of  feet of the un-oiled tape through in the process of 
re-commissioning these  machines.

Also, West NC do still carry roll paper for page  printers, but if someone 
can recommend other suppliers as well, it would  be appreciated.  

Thanks!
