Hungry acids can't eat U. S. Uscolite pipe
A LARGE phonograph record factory needed a piping system which would stand up under the corrosive effects of acids. United States Rubber Company engineers were called in for consultation. They recommended piping, ducts and fittings made of Uscolite, the great "U.S." plastic . . . and the acids gave no more trouble. Uscolite is resistant to most chemicals, acids and alkalies. It has amazingly high impact strength, is easy to handle, can be cut to length and threaded on the job. If you have any difficulties with piping, you can't afford to overlook Uscolite. Call any of our 25 District Sales offices (each is staffed with engineers) or write to address below.

This Uscolite duct, used in the de-chrome room, carries away fumes from a 507c hydrochloric solution at 160 degrees F. The factory also uses U.S. Steam Hose and U.S. Transmission Belts.
