In 1932* th first two rubber lined plckls tanks were installed at tfa* Arnco plrrit In Sfiddletcwn, Ohio. These two tanks u~ sank in exacite aucaavs- tians and hsve not been available for inspection*
This Goodrich rubber lining is trad* ntned "Triflcx* by reason of its thras sections* There is an inner layer or core of hard rubber covered on both aides vith soft rubbar, the rubber lininyi throughout are 1/k in* in total thickness.
Additional *7rlflex* rubber lined pickle tanbs were built and the/ are all oerrir^ todn? arter 10 to li. years service. Dlneneion* of a typloal pickle tank erei depth h ft., width 8 ft. 5-lA in., and total length 200 ft. Tbs
tank It divided into four sections for differed acid concentrations sod for the end section to serve as a wash tack.
Kith the creeptied of the first t*o tsrks, the t bore have been construc ted on I beans for central accessibility* The aboil of in. tank is of steel covered with tho "Triflex* rubber linirc Just ss ltsd would be silled, and than two courses of acid resistant brick aako an additional lining of 9 in. Sand stone blocks are placed at intervals on the floor of t-.e tank to take tho bulk of the abrasion fron the strip. The brick Unii^ extend# above tho add lnvtl
