Lead and stainless steel pipe
New copper pipe can be joined to lead pipe by using special compression fit¬tings; making a proper ‘wiped’ soldered joint is a job probably best left to a quali¬fied plumber. If your house contains much lead pipe, consider stripping it all out and having a joint made near the main stopcock in the house – this will make it easier to carry out future work.
Stainless steel was used in the 1970s for central heating system when copper was expensive. Sizes of stainless-steel pipe are the same as copper 15mm, 22mm and 28mm. It can be cut with a hacksaw or pipe cutting tool and bent with a bending machine. It is easier to make joints in stainless-steel pipe with compression fit¬tings rather than with capillary fittings.

A tail lift is permanently fitted to the back of a van or lorry that is used to facilitate the materials handling of goods from ground level or a loading dock to the level of the load bed of the vehicle. There are two types of tail lift vehicles – hydraulic or pneumatic. These vehicles are controlled by an operator using an electric relay switch.
Tail lift vehicles are used in machinery such as a forklift truck in order to load heavy items on to a vehicle. They are also used to bridge the difference in height between a loading dock and the vehicle load bed. (more…)
A model train set can have either plastic or metal wheels. Understanding model train wheel-set construction is important when considering which type of wheels is best for you.
A train wheel consists of a flange and a tread. The flange is the inside part of the wheel and is deeper (or longer) than the other. The tread is the flat portion that actually rides on the rail. (Real trains have the same type flange and tread manufacture.) Some wheels are mounted on an adjustable axle, which allows for some rotation of the wheels. In actuality, this two-part design of the wheel and axle is called the wheel-set. Some trains have plastic wheel-sets and some have metal wheel-sets, while still others use a combination of plastic and metal to create the wheel-set. (more…)
