Processing certain chero s is a tough enough job. But transporting them, safely and without harmful metallic contamination can be even more of a headache. It was, at any rate, until 1935, when the first Lukens Nickel-Clad Steel tank car -was built to carry such products*as caustic soda, phenol, alcohols and other solvents ànd^ corrosive chemicals.Today, both General American Transportation Corporation and American Car & Foundry Company employ Lukens Nickel-Clad Steel because of its inherent resistance to the destructive action of many commonly used chemicals. Nickel-Clad Steel has a mechanical strength of 55,000 psi (minimum). It is readily fabricated...may be either welded or riveted. Although the nickel cladding may amount only to 10% of the plate thickness, the full corrosion resistant, non-contaminating proper-
ties of solid nickel are right Uhere . .. together with a considerable saving in cost» Wse of Nickel-Clad Steel ke«ps chemical tank cars rolling longer, reduces turnaround t i m e and speeds deliveries by eliminating frequeant nepair ;and maintenance. 3Most important, Nickiel-Clad Sfeeel protects product purity. ITor specific data which may help solve? one of your postwar transportation problems, w& suggest you write for the booklets, Jbukens Nickel-Glad Steels and 4O0 Practical Applications.
