New Literature Available On VHF/FM Marine Radios From Uniden Corporation Uniden Corporation of America, Indianapolis, Ind., is offering new literature on the line of VHF/FM marine radios that the company produces. By way of introduction, the publi- cation mentions that Uniden's posi- tion as a technological leader has been earned through a strong com- mitment to research and develop- ment, advanced components design, ultramodern manufacturing tech- niques, a strong sense of responsibil- ity to customers, and a pledge of quality. In the pleasure boating market, Uniden is one of the leading manufacturers of VHF marine radio equipment and has now incorpo- rated the latest microprocessor technology in their VHF radios. Uniden's line of marine radios is illustrated with color photos, and each model is described in the text. A chart of specifications lists such information as number of transmit and receive channels, channel dis- play, size, weight, etc., for each mod- el, so that one can see a glance what particular VHS/FM marine radio meets a particular need. In addition to the existing one- year limited warranty, the company has a radio life insurance program Workers using COPPER BLAST see what they're doing and do more work in less time. Once again, lower initial cost doesn't mean lower operating cost. In recent laboratory tests. COPPER BLAST has a 50% cutting advantage over lower guality copper slags and, on many jobs, could do twice the work in the same time. These same tests prove COPPER BLAST produces less dust during use than other sand or slag-based abrasives. Less dust means greater visibility and increased productivity. COPPER BLAST is certified by the California and Utah air quality standards boards. Why all-purpose COPPER BLAST works harder. Particles are angular. Every surface is a cutting surface. COPPER BLAST is harder so particles are not crushed on impact and can be reused on many jobs. Because the six grades of COPPER BLAST are uniformly screened, more particles are similar in size. They strike the surface with the same mass and velocity, providing a more even anchor pattern. COPPER BLAST is safe. With very little dust, workers can see and have greater protection from silicosis, (a form of lung disease). The free silica con- tent of COPPER BLAST is so low it can't be detected by standard laboratory methods. COPPER BLAST meets all cur- rent OSHA, EPA and NIOSH chemical limits. COPPER BLAST cleans faster at lower cost. It makes sense. If you blast with a product that cuts better, cuts faster, creates less dust and lasts longer, your work forces will clean more surfaces in less time for less money. This makes premium-quality These cratered surfaces were made by nickel slag (left) and silica sand abrasives (right). They left more residue and will reguire more paint. COPPER BLAST a very cost-effective abrasive, especially with its safety benefits and low free silica levels. If you're responsible for specifying or buying blasting material, we have a quality, performance and cost story you should hear. We can also show you how much dust particles cost on your jobs. COPPER BLAST is made in a new, high- tech plant. It is available for immediate delivery throughout the West and Midwest. Just call or write James D. Hansink, Manager.

FMC Announces New Model Coffin Turbo Feed Pump —Literature Available A medium-to-high-capacity, tur- bine-driven centrifugal pump for marine and industrial applications is now available from FMC Coffin Turbo Pump Division of FMC Cor- poration of Englewood, N.J. Desig- nated type CG, the Coffin® turbo pump can handle capacities to 550 gallons per minute and total head to I,900 feet, 825 psg—about one-third higher head pressure than the com- pany's type T turbo pump. The rugged, dependable type CG carries a 24-month warranty and is said to be ideal for general boiler feed service, in-plant cogeneration systems, and wherever a high-pres- sure characteristic is desired. For further information and free literature on the CG pump, Circle 29 on Reader Service Card Circle 324 on Reader Service Card 26 Maritime Reporter/Engineering News Laboratory tests prove it! Copper Blast Cuts 30-50% Better Than Lower-Quality Slag And Up to 4 Times Faster Than Many Silica Sands. Every edge of a reusable COPPER BLAST particle is a cutting edge (magnified 17 times). COPPER BLAST creates a uniform anchor pattern which provides good coating adhesion.
