• Scandura Seals can now produce gaskets from com posite materials—either steel-faced with a soft core or soft-faced with a steel core. This new approach is ideal for applications where expensive build-up gaskets were previously required. The new materials are par ticularly resistant to the fretting problems encountered where movement and heat are involved.
Scandura says its own tool-making ensures the creation of production-quality prototype gaskets is a speedy process.

The galvanised pipework is powder coated for maximum resistance and the "stay-open" ball valve means hands-free operation is possible. Contact: 0181 302 4035 • A new range of stainless steel tipping containers has been introduced by handling equipment specialist Contact Attachments.
These models are intended to meet a need for a fork-lift-mounted tipping skip which will not contaminate sensitive products and is also easy to clean.
The skip is corrosion resistant and so is ideal for permanent outdoor use and there are six "standard" sizes available in the range—from 0.25m3 to 2.0m3. Each is designed to fit any type of conventional lift-truck. Options available include castors and lifting lugs to enable handling with an overhead crane.
