Designed for blind placing where access is available or practical from one side of the work only, the Briv rivet allows the designer flexibility in the choice of materials and sections used in production. including hollow square, rectangular or tubular section, as well as sheet or plate. Rivets are offered in diameters of bin. or .Pein., the smaller being capable of gripping sheets with thicknesses from 0.036in. up to 0.125in, and the larger sheets with thicknesses from 0.036in. up to 0.190in.

Tube adaptors
Six adaptors have recently been added to the Doublem range made by Enots.
The new adaptors enable existing imperial dimensioned piping installations to be extended using metric sized tube and fittings. They enable a 4mm outside diameter tube to be connected to tin. overall diameter tube, 5mm to 4in., 6mm to lin.. 8mm to lin. and ain. and 12mm tube
to tube.
In all cases the metric side of the adaptor will accept an Enots Doublem sleeve and tubing nut while the imperial side is designed to fit directly into an Enots "inch" system fitting or port.
These, and the other 374 items in the Doublern range, are described in a new leaflet (list MCC470) which is in the form of a wall chart for use by designers, draughtsmen and engineers. It folds to A4 size for filing.
Made by: Enots Ltd, PO Box 228, Aston Brook St. Birmingham 6. A lockable hitch has been developed by Slaven Transport Products to cater for mixed fleets that include frameless tippers with oscillating upper fifth-wheel plates and standard semi-trailers.
Known as the STP Rock-Lock it utilizes an STP Hitch and an STP Saddle Mount assembly incorporating a 1-kin. diameter high-tensile steel locking pin at each tail which locks the hitch parallel with the chassis when coupled to a frameless tipper. When locked in this position the rubber trunnion bushings give a certain amount of cushion and absorb road shocks and vibrations. When the lock pins are extracted clear of the hitch, the hitch oscillates in the normal manner for operation with standard trailers.
To avoid accidental release of the lock pins through tampering, the lock pins are held in the locked or unlocked position by a setscrew. It is, therefore, necessary to have a spanner at hand to change the Rock-Lock but the change is accomplished in a matter of seconds.
The Rock-Lock is supplied as a complete unit ready to instal direct on the chassis and as the base is a modified Saddle Mount it can be instal,led at 101in. to
14-.in., top-of -hitch -to-top-ofchassis, without packing and the base angles bear along 40in. of chassis frame to spread the load. Made by: Slaven Transport Products Ltd, Astmoor Industrial Estate. Runcorn, Cheshire,

Glaze sealer
Quentglaze sealer is one of the range of improved prepolymers manufactured by Quentsplass Ltd They are one-pack products that cure by reacting with atmospheric moisture and are applied like varnish, dry quickly and have outstanding abrasion and chemical resistance. On wooden floors the material has excellent abrasion resistance and can be applied to linoleum and cork.
On concrete floors the priming coat combines with the residual moisture, which is always present in such floors, and this assists penetration into the concrete so that a good key and consolidating effect is achieved. The life of the concrete is prolonged by the reduction in the effects of oil and chemical spillage. It can be applied to damp-proofing walls in old property, cellars and so on and to furniture, sports equipment and toys. Conveyor buckets can be coated with the material to prevent excessive sludge build-up and it is suitable for use on exterior woodwork such as cedar cladding and boats.
