A clad printing drum for offset printing apparatus includes a cast iron or aluminum base to which a stainless steel cover is attached by an epoxy adhesive. A sheet of the epoxy is applied to the base. A spacing member formed of fiberglass strands and nylon strands is disposed over the covered base. An outer sheet of epoxy is applied over the spacing tube. The stainless steel cover is wrapped about the outer sheet with an outer clamping band to apply a predetermined pressure clamping of the epoxy and interposed spacing member. The clamped assembly is heated to cause the resin to flow and cure while under the pressure of the clamping means.
