The "Angle" You Can't See in Power Piping
*Ihe "angle" in power piping that can't be measured with say mechanical device is the way metals react under extreme temperatures, pressures end other unusual conditions.
Here at Kellogg a complete sta0, headed by some of America's foremost metallurgists, carries on endless research into the peculiarities of metals--probing foe answers to problems that mean millions of dollars to industry.
Among some of the contributions made by the Kellogg Metallurgical Laboratory are: measures to prevent "graphitization"--special heat treating methods--establishment of high temperature creep characteristics of metals. Ia addi tion* a new method was recently announced for producing alloys with performance characteristics that surpass all pre vious standards at sustained ultra-high temperatures.
It's extra knowledge and extra care like this that accounts for the extra quality in a Kellogg Job--another reason why so many of the world's top industnes turn to Kellogg when perfection is all-important
