In a method for continuously jacketing steel objects particularly tubing including the steps of cleaning the object by means of blasting its surface; chromatizing the cleaned surface by exposing the surface to a silicate containing watery solution of 3 and/or 6 valued chromium compound or compounds, drying the object at a temperature preferably between 105 degrees C. and 130 degrees C. which is well below the temperature necessary either for an application of a bonding and cover layer and/or for curing of the epoxy resin; a blend being applied prior to conversion of the chromatizing medium and any chromium iron compounds into a thermally stable intermediate layer including a chromium iron silicate oxide layer, the application of epoxy resin curing agent is carried out in two steps to obtain at least two sublayers, the first one of the layer being more reactive than the second one at temperature below 170 degrees C. and the two sublayers are cured together thereafter at a temperature between 170 to 240 degrees C., the first sublayer is applied in the liquidous state and the second layer is applied as a powder.

Jacketing steel objects

The invention relates to a method and an apparatus for the recovery of spraying substance when spraying elongated rolled stock. Difficulties are met when trying to recover water-dilutable or water-soluble coating agents since after evaporation of the solvent, i.e. the water, the film which is left can no longer be dissolved by water and thus it is no longer possible to recover this fraction of the spraying substance. According to the invention, therefore, it is proposed to carry out the spraying in a water-saturated atmosphere so that the excess spraying substance can easily be recovered. The apparatus is appropriately constructed to correspond to these circumstances.

Method and apparatus for the recovery of spraying substance when

An arrangement for the prevention of excess pressure in housings of shut-off valves with varying pressure loads, in which an independent chamber is provided with two facing openings. These are connected by pressure lines to pipe sockets connected to the shut-off valves. The facing openings are closed by seals which are, in turn, connected gas-tight by elastic elements. Another pressure line discharges into the chamber space located outside the elastic elements, and this pressure line is connected to the interior of the housing of the shut-off valves. The sealing elements which close the facing openings, brace each other through a spring, and the sealing elements are connected gas-tight by a bellows. A center section is located between the sealing elements. Through drill holes in the center section and in the sealing elements, the facing openings discharge into a space enclosed by the center section, the bellows and associated sealing element. The springs are located inside the bellows and brace themselves on a sealing element and on the center section. A single spring located outside the bellows, rests against the two sealing elements.
