DuoBear® Box Liner

DuoBear® Box Liners combine superior containment with easy and reliable full tank pre-leak checking. DuoBear® liners are constructed of a high impact PVC outer shell and then lined with Koroseal® flexible PVC using GOAD COMPANY’S Patent Pending N-FUZE® lining technology: infused machine corner welds on full size radio frequency welded panels, and molded corner inserts.

To insure maximum life and worry-free operation, the DuoBear® includes a conductive layer for FULL tank pre-leak checking with GOAD’S patented TANKeye® Inspector.

*Liners for Hard Chrome plating will have a 100% PTFE (Teflon®) LFP Skirt at the solution level and above, where extreme oxidation attack occurs.

These long-lasting liners feature easy, “drop-in” installation yet avoid the drawbacks and limitations of flexible bag liners.

GOAD’S DuoBear® rigid box liners come with an extended warranty. There are NO hand welds on either the rigid shell or the bonded lining of the DuoBear® Box Liner.

Trivalent Aluminum Chromate Conversion Coating

Carolina Process Control, has announced that it's Luster-On product known as "Aluminescent" has received approval
under the government Mil Spec of MIL-DTL-81706B for chemical conversion coatings. Aluminescent is now officially listed
on the Qualified Products List (QPL) pertaining to chemical conversion materials for coating aluminum alloys. This approval
follows rigorous testing conducted by NAVTEC using specific steps to prove its corrosion resistance, paint adhesion, and
shelf life capabilities. Carolina Process Control is one of the few companies in the world offering a fully certified product
that is chrome free that also exceeds all aspect of the Mil Spec 5152.
Aluminescent is the only powdered hex-free conversion coating for aluminum listed on the Qualified Product List for
MIL-DTL-5541F, class 1A and 3. The chromate is a replacement for yellow or clear hexavalent chromates and provides
excellent corrosion protection at low cost and minimum control. Aluminescent can be applied by dip, spray, brush, swab
or roll coating, requires no electrical current, cooling or exhaust and is suitable for both wrought and cast aluminum alloys.

Alkaline Non-Cyanide Copper Process

E-Bite Ultra Cu is a unique cyanide-free alkaline copper plating process with covering and throwing powers greater than
cyanide copper. The process plates on steel, zinc diecast, zincated aluminum, brass, electroless nickel and watts nickel.
The process is said to be an excellent pre-plate copper strike for bright nickel, acid copper, tin and solder plates.
It is also an excellent decorative finish for buttons, rivets, lighting fixtures and builders’ hardware. The copper plate can be
readily blackened or oxidized for a variety of attractive antiqued finishes. It said to have no carbonates that need to be treated
nor contain strong chelators. It is supplied as a liquid concentrate which is diluted with water. The plating process produces a
fine grained, smooth, dense and ductile copper deposit which is nonporous and has excellent bonding properties. It is designed
to be the next generation process to E-Brite 30/30 process & works in rack or barrel processes.

Founded in 1954, EPI has been a leader and innovator in the development and manufacture of chemicals for the metal plating and
metal finishing industries. Headquartered in New Berlin, Wisconsin, EPI supplies customers worldwide with an extensive line of
products in the areas of electroplating, metal blackening, corrosion inhibitors, antiquing and oxidizing, metal cleaners, metal
brighteners, surface preparations, chromate finishes, and phosphate finishes.

Easy to use Amp Hour Counter has an alarm

The new BathAlarm™ is an amp-hour counter with a 95db audible alarm that is as easy to use as a kitchen timer. It can be set-up for any size rectifier with any shunt output and has a resolution of 0.00 to X10 in either amp hours or amp minutes. It keeps a total count with a bright seven digit LED display, and it can be set to blink at a programmed count before the alarm to pre-warn the operator visually. Instead of a complicated menu driven set-up, all parameters and unique features are selectable on a simple Windows™ program, which is then downloaded to the instrument by USB cable. This leaves the instrument with only the functions that are necessary for the operator.

Lutz Pumps, Inc. now offers Sealless transfer pumps for IBC’s.

As more companies receive chemicals in bulk containers, Lutz is meeting the demand to safely
transfer liquid by introducing its Sealless pumptubes in lengths up to 78". The safest way to avoid
spillage (no leaking pumps or valves) is to extract liquid from the top rather than from the bottom drain.

Material of construction: Polypropylene with drive shaft in Hast. C, or all Stainless Steel with
rotor in ETFE. Other models including the High Viscosity pumps can be custom built.

To avoid emission and evaporation, pumps can be installed with fume barriers, which are
available in Polypropylene and Stainless.

Motors are available in TEFC (illustrated), Explosion proof, ODP, 12 DC or Pneumatic.

For added safety transferring liquids out of totes, Lutz offers a range of accessories. Illustrated
are dispensing nozzle available in polypropylene and stainless, as well as the NEW flowmeter
available in Polypropylene or PVDF for accurate measurement of liquid extracted.
