ONE-WAYTOTE FORLIQUID COMPOUNDSThe MatchlessMetal Polish Co. hasdeveloped the Match-Vat one-waytote for liquid compounds. The
www.metalfinishing.com
unique Match-Vat uses an air bladder to completely force all compound from the 225-gallon cardboard bulk tank. Once empty, thistank can be collapsed and completely disposed of in your normal trash.
The compound bladder is filled atthe factory, and no air or contaminates can get in, as it is tied directlyto the customers pump. The MatchVat, which is never opened, eliminates scraping ofcompound, storingof empties, and shipping costs associated with returning empty containers to customers.

SUPPLY STICKSPlast-O-Matic Valves, lnc., hasdeveloped a pressure-regulating supply stick that combines a number ofvalves, connectors, and gauges into acompact, single-piece design. SeriesPCWS was developed to eliminateconnections and minimize spacerequirements in plastic piping systems. Most significantly, the reduction in size and connections providesan overall increase in piping strength
by 1,400%, virtually eliminatingpotential for breakage. The multifunctional assembly, called a "stick,"incorporates the features of a pressure regulator, pressure gauge, andshut-off valve into a single unit.
Designed specifically for processcooling water, the all-thermoplasticstick assemblies can be used tostrengthen piping and reduce footprint in a variety of applicationswhere corrosion is an issue. Theinherent pressure regulator can beset to supply downstream pressurefrom 5-125 psi. A variety of pipelineconnections are available, and different types ofconnections can be specified for inlet and outlet.
