6,000 pounds with a working tension of 1,200 pounds. A dacron jacket and extruded polyure- thane layer separate the core from 21 color coded No. 20 FEP insulated conductors. The conductor layer is covered with a foil shield and mylar wrap after which a heavy polyurethane jacket is applied.

The finished cable is flexible, lightweight, 565 inches in diameter and can be supplied in lengths up to 2,000 m. Temperature, conductivi- ty and similar sensors can be readily spliced into the polyurethane jacket, affording the opportu- nity for easily achieved leak-proof molded joints, with smooth contours to minimize snag- ging. The Sea Data Thermistor Chain is a typi- cal application. In addition to the thermistor chain, and finished cable with custom termina- tions, with or without sensors molded in at the factory, raw lengths of the cable can also be pur- chased.

Goodway Offers New Catalog

On Tube Cleaning Systems

And Pressure Washers

Goodway Tools Corporation of Stamford,

Conn., has published a new 36-page catalog tit- led "Tube Cleaning Systems and Pressure

Washers." The booklet functions as a guide to

Goodway's tube cleaning equipment and air and electric-powered tube cleaners for boilers, con- densers, and heat exchangers, which brush or scrape deposits with simultaneous vacuum re- covery or water flush; and to electric or air-pow- ered pressure washers that are available in com- pact designs for easy handling, transport and storage.

The new four-color publication contains an index that serves as a quick reference to the line of Goodway equipment that is offered. All of the products listed are liberally illustrated with photos, along with explanatory texts, specifica- tions, accessory lists, prices, etc.

Covered in the catalog are the Soot-A-Matic, a lightweight, compact boiler tube cleaning sys- tem with an integrated vacuum that collects soot and scale as it is removed from the firetubes by

Soot-A-Matic's interchangeable cleaning brushes; and Goodway vacuums for plant main- tenance, powered for strong suction for cleaning boilers or any maintenance application.

Also discussed are two models of Ream-A-

Matic, which use a flexible shaft to snake through the tubes while the rotating action of the cable allows the cleaning brush or cutting tool to loosen all deposits along the way as water transported through the shaft simultaneously and continuously flushes out the loosened de- posits, leaving the tubes thoroughly cleaned; and the AWT-100 air-powered tube cleaner used for all types of tube cleaning applications where brushing or cutting of tube deposits with simultaneous water flushing action is desirable.

Included are descriptions of the PSM-500 heat exchanger/oil cooler cleaner, the Goodway

Boiler Efficiency Tester used to determine if a burner needs adjustments or the boiler needs to be cleaned, and the Goodway Hi-Pressure

Washers which offer economy and efficiency in a compact design for easy handling transport and storage.

The booklet contains detailed information on how to order tube cleaning systems, and infor- mation on tube sizes, with a chart to determine tube inside diameter.

Kastalon Offers New Brochure

On Polyurethane Crane Bumpers

Polyurethane crane bumpers are the subject of a new brochure being offered free by Kastalon

Inc. of Alsip, 111.

The four-page folder says that Kastalon poly- urethane crane bumpers outlast all other crane bumpers and, affording physical properties that surpass ordinary materials, they are more resil- ient, more durable, more economical and more capable of accommodating a wide range of appli- cations, fitting virtually every bumper require- ment. Only premium grade materials are used, yielding crane bumpers that provide optimum results in every application at reasonable costs.

Other points mentioned are: Kastalon poly- urethane crane bumpers are engineered for both

OSHA and AISE (steel mill) requirements; they are not affected by oil, grease, dirty environ- ments, temperature changes or aging, thus pro- viding for longer life; they have no moving parts, require no maintenance, require less room for installation, and are much less in cost. Advan- tages listed are longer life, less downtime, better results, and lower operating costs.

The publication contains a chart that lists the various models with such information for each as diameter, length, cubic inches, capacity, base- plate, bolt size, bolt centers and weight. Quick selection graphs are also shown for both AISE and OSHA parameters, and bumpers of extraor- dinary parameters can be engineered and quoted upon request. Kastalon provides a com- plete service package on custom-made polyure- thane products.
