ESCO ALLOY CASTINGS OUTLAST OTHERS M A N Y TIMES! A big reason for the unusually high corrosion resist ance of ESCO Alloy steel castings is the advanced technique of heat-treating and water quench devel oped at ESCO. It takes only 30 seconds for a load of steel castings to pass from the oven into an 8O00cubic-foot water quenching tank! Capacity, and speed of quench illustrates a typical ESCO answer to a tough production problem. For only with such facilities can you be assured the uniformly high cor rosion resistance of ESCO Stainless steels. ESCO has solved many tough heat and corrosion problems for indfustry as part of its application en gineering and foundry service ! ESCO maintains one of the largest foundry metallurgical laboratories in the country to help you with really tough corrosion problems. Your inquiry is invited. Write for full details or ask for informative Brochure 175.
