I I The problem: Leakage in shipboard piping— leakage that allows segregated fluids to mix. The potential danger to your _ cargo and even to your ship is so seri- ous it can't be measured in money. IVorics Better: A unique positive seating twin disc seal allows the Marland Line Blind to be inspected for leakage while it's in service. A quick look into the body of the valve is all it takes. Should there ever be a leak, you can fix it in min- utes—before it can become a problem. Less Maintenance: Marland Line Blinds will last indefinitely be- cause there is no metal-to-metal seating to produce friction and wear. The only replacement parts are gaskets your crew can cut aboard ship from standard sheet packing! Costs Less; Because of the unique efficiency of its design, the Marland Line Blind sells for 30% to 50% less than competing products. And that doesn't take into account the money and time they will save in maintenance.
