near Pydraul cr Aroclor.
Teste vrere run in several different v ays - addition, stirring
s ha Icing i agitation with blender, etc, Houghton's cover lotto .
with t)vi reptrt called our product texic on basis of toot and
t-.ald Pydraul 31? was more toxic then Arcelor 1248 and therefore
another uonounent of Pydraul 312 must be the cause since Pydr;ul
312 contained 1248, This le of courte wrong. Pydraul 312 noo
Aroclor .'.242,
Thi o must be the some report Ford sr.v previously. SI might vie hi didn't understand the do.tr, but was ccnccrncd. Ko is thus turn

is reported to have Pyrogard-D in it,. 80" hot strip should be using FR fluids in the loopers, roll balance and coiler, but it isn't confirmed, BOF scrap charger from Pecor is specified on Houghtosafe 1120 by Oreat LakeB against Pydraul 312 spec of Pecor,
Straightwell has been ordered to cut cost on mobile equipment by Plant Manager, Units are in open hearth area and if opera tors use Air Packs as indicated by Straightwell, pydraul will operate successfully, Reclamation could alBO cut costs since they are periodically dumping charge on each machine due to contamination.
Following actions are needed at Oreat Lakes to obtain business:
1. Fague send proposal to Straightwell on use of Pydraul 312 in both Askania and mobile equipment. Push for definite trial in Askania. Confirm use of air-packs by operators of mobile equipment. If not used, cdor will prevent Pydraul use. Reclamation should be stressed also.
2. Additional eontaots are necessary to get in here. Straightwell stated he isn't interested in helping us on the scrap oharger uo we must get back to tfe project engineers, Fotr-yk and Sebastian. The ConCast unit should be rechecked for . fluid need through M. Jones, Chief Engineer, and by Randy Qraham at ConCast, Contact with Straightwell1s boss, Main tenance Superintendent, should b made to get in with a more reliable decision maker. Contact with the Supt, Com bustion and Supt. Melt Shop or BOF will be needed to get in Askanias and BOP scrap charger- since they are directly cost responsible. Contact with Oupt, Power Plant may lead to Pydraul AC business. Since plant manager is ordering cost reduction - contact may be occeptable there,
