COATING protects Hamer "VISIBLE WEDGE" Line Blinds For positive shut-off in piping systems, engineers have long relied on Hamer Line Blind Valves. These absolute sealing valves provide substantial savings in time and product loss which often repay t h e cost of the valve in a surprisingly short period of time. When Hamer developed its series of Visible Wedge line blinds, an effective protection of the wedge surfaces against corrosion was desired. After thorough test and study, Kanigen nickel-alloy coating was selected for these surfaces. "Application of the Kanigen coating process," say the men at Hamer, "provides us with an effective corrosion barrier of this vital part, and
greatly increases the service life of the valve." KANIGEN nickel alloy, chemically deposited as a hard, uniform coating, provides corrosion resistance and protection from product contamination wherever nickel is needed. Less costly than alloys, solid metals or clad materials, it can be used in a wide range of equipment—from small valves to the interior of huge tanks and dryers.
Equipment and parts can be jig-coated, rack-coated or barrel-coated at GENERAL AMERICAN plants at East Chicago, Indiana; Sharon, Pennsylvania, and Compton, California.
