Incredible Ergonomic Value
Consider this: Your spine is not a straight line, it curves inward as it approaches your waistline, yet a traditional hiking bag alone distributes weight straight down as if your spine did not curve. By offsetting that weight with a counterweight on the lower front portion of your body, you bring the weight distribution into alignment with your body’s natural shape. If you were to carry the same load in your pack before adding our Body Packs to your front, effectively carrying additional weight in them, you’ll definitely feel as though you carried less after a few hours, not more. By aligning the load with your body’s desired shape, it will feel as though you’re carrying much, much less than you are.
They’re Handy, Too
The term “handy” was made to refer to things that are conveniently close at hand; what could be more close at hand than packs that you can actually rest your hands upon? Even the best hiking bags in the world can’t give you access to the things you’ll need while you’re blazing the trail. By now, you’re probably used to stopping to get anything you need out of your pack, replacing it, re-hoisting your pack, and then moving on; maybe you have a buddy do the pack digging for you, but neither case allows you to continue moving as you do so. With our Balance Packs, accessing the things you need to keep “handy” will be easier than ever before. Plus, since you’ll receive the ergonomic benefits mentioned above, you won’t want to stop and dig through your pack nearly as often anyway!

Bras are an essential part of every women’s wardrobe. But, have you wondered what the uses of a bra are? ;
There never goes a day for women without wearing a bra. However, have you ever wondered what the use of a bra is? Why should women wear a bra? Well, the first bra came into the picture in 1914. And gradually, bras became an essential part of women’s wardrobes. However, even today, most women find it refreshing and comfortable to take off their bar after a long tiring day. But did you know that there are various uses of bra, which benefit us in many ways? Unhooking and throwing your bra across the bed after a hectic day feels like bliss. But here are the advantages of wearing a bra.
1. Prevent Sagging
Women’s breasts are made of fats and glands. Even though the ligaments provide the necessary support, breasts eventually sag in almost every woman. And to avoid this, girls should wear a bra. Wearing a bra lifts the breasts and helps prevent sagging up to some extent.
2. Offer Support
As against popular belief, the primary use of a women's bra is not simply enhancing the appearance of your breasts. A good bra should offer excellent support to your breasts and enhance your comfort. UNIQLO’s high-quality collection of bras is specially designed to provide incredible support to breasts as well as shoulders. This also helps improve your posture, especially if you have heavy breasts.
3. High Comfort
It’s during sleep that wearing a bra can make women most uncomfortable. However, going braless for a whole day can also cause discomfort to you. The pulls and bounces of breasts during the day’s activity can lead to pain. That is why wearing a bra is important. UNIQLO’s wide range of wireless bras is smartly designed to provide you with the perfect fit with lightweight. This means ultra comfort all day long!
4. Better Shape
Many women today are not confident about their breasts - their size, gap, and shape. Due to this reason, some women opt for other cosmetic treatments as well, which are unnecessary in most cases. But did you know wearing a good quality bra can also do the trick? Among many uses of a bra helping make peace with the flaws is one. Wearing the right type of bra can help you hold your breast in better shape. So you can be more confident in your body.
5. Increased Confidence
What you wear under your beautiful dress can play a significant role in how you feel about yourself and carry yourself. You should feel confident to carry yourself on every occasion. A well-fitted and comfortable bra can enhance your posture, and body language and subsequently boost confidence.
Steel pipe elbow (sometimes also referred to as bends) is a key part of a pressure piping system used to change the fluid flow direction. It is used to connect two pipes with the same or different nominal diameters, and to make the pipe and thus the fluid direction turn to a certain direction of 45 degrees or 90 degrees. This change in fluid flow direction adds pressure losses to the system due to impact, friction, and re-acceleration.
Classification of Steel Pipe Elbows
Types of Elbows based on Direction Angle
According to the fluid flow direction of the pipes, elbows can be divided into different degrees, such as 45 degrees, 90 degrees, and 180 degrees, which are the most common elbows. Also, there are 60-degree and 120-degree elbows for some special pipelines. This degree is just a representation of the angle by which the fluid flow is going to change after flowing through the said elbow.
Types of Elbows based on Length and Radius
Elbows are split into two groups which define the distance over which the flowing fluid change direction; the centerline of one end to the opposite face. This is known as the “Center to Face” distance and is equivalent to the radius through which the elbow is bent.
If the radius is the same as pipe diameter (Center-to-Face dimension of 1.0 X diameter ), it is called Short Radius Elbow (SR elbow) used normally for low pressure and low-speed pipelines or in tight areas where clearance is the main issue. If the radius is larger than the pipe diameter (Center-to-Face dimension of 1.5 X diameter) then we call it a Long Radius Elbow (LR Elbow) used for high pressure and high flow rate pipelines.
Types of Elbows based on Connection with Pipe
As per the connection with pipe, elbows could be classified as Butt Welded elbows, Socket Welded elbows, and Threaded elbows.
Butt Welded Elbow
A buttweld elbow is a steel elbow formed by hot pressing or forging. Its connection form is to directly weld the elbow and steel pipe. Butt-welded elbows have beveled ends to allow for ease of welding. This bevel allows for full penetration weld in most cases. Butt-welded elbows are mainly used for elbows with higher pressure and temperature.
Socket Welded Elbow
Socket weld elbow is also welded to the pipe and fittings end. Unlike the butt weld elbow, the socket weld elbow has a trapezoidal area at the end. We can insert the pipe end into this area (the diameter of the SW elbow is matched with the outer diameter of the pipe), then do welding work to connect them together. Therefore, the actual diameter of the SW elbow end is greater than the elbow diameter.
Threaded Elbow
The shape of the threaded elbow is similar to the SW elbow, except that the inner surface of the trapezoidal area has been machined into thread. It is easier to install and remove, good for pipeline repair and maintenance.
There is a wide range of low melting alloys available. Yet some are restricted in their use based on their brittleness, toxicity, and reactive qualities. Some of these elements are bismuth, gallium, tin, indium, zinc, cadmium, tellurium, antimony, thallium, mercury, and lead. Many of these minerals may also be additives placed during the formation of the low melting alloys. ;
Density Characteristics
One of the main reasons for using low melting alloys is due to how it changes when it melts and then solidify. Some alloys are eutectic and will become pure liquid instantly, while others are Non-Eutectic and will transition through a semi-liquid state that has a type of slushy texture before becoming liquids. Low melting alloys will also change in density when solidifying. Alloys such as bismuth and gallium will expand greatly when in their liquid state and then become dense when changing back into a solid.
Knowing the density of the alloy is important as the manufacturer needs to know how much it will shrink or expand. If the metal shrinks too much, it may not create the proper bond with other materials, or have the required strength it needs to withstand stresses. If it expands too much, it can become brittle when changing back into a solid as the alloy might fail during the operation of the product or equipment.
The varying densities of the alloys can also be important to manufacturers based on how they plan to use the alloy. For delicate jewelry, you may not want a material to expand too much as it could end up damaging the surrounding metal that needs to remain intact. You also need to pay attention to the elongation, strength, tensile modulus, and yield strength of the alloy during the manufacturing process.
Bismuth-based: Bismuth alloys will have a composition that is less of a ductile characteristic than tin, as it can become brittle. Manufacturers use bismuth due to its expansion qualities when it melts and then solidifies as it can expand to up to 3.3%. The more bismuth is in an alloy, the more it expands. It is less expensive than other alloys that are featured and the least toxic as it can be used in applications where there is drinking water present. ;
Bismuth compounds account for about half the production of bismuth. They are used in cosmetics; pigments; and a few pharmaceuticals, notably bismuth subsalicylate, used to treat diarrhea. Bismuth's unusual propensity to expand as it solidifies is responsible for some of its uses, such as in the casting of printing type. Bismuth has unusually low toxicity for heavy metals. As the toxicity of lead has become more apparent in recent years, there is increasing use of bismuth alloys (presently about a third of bismuth production) as a replacement for lead.
A Brief Introduction To The Indium Alloy
Indium alloy is generally divided into binary alloys, ternary alloys, and multi-component alloys.
Generally, the melting temperature of indium alloy mainly composed of indium is relatively low, which is mainly used as some low melting point alloys or solders.
While some alloys have very little indium content, indium mainly plays a role in modification, such as improving the strength of non-ferrous metal alloys, improving their ductility, abrasion resistance, corrosion resistance, and changing the color of precious metals.
Classification Of The Indium Alloy
Generally, the indium alloy can be divided into 5 categories, which are bearing alloys, ferromagnetic alloys, memory alloys, decorative alloys, and dental and gemstone alloys. The following is a brief introduction to the 5 types of indium alloy:
1. Bearing Alloy
Bearing alloys are widely used in the aviation and automotive industries. The bearing alloys mainly used in the manufacture of high-speed engine bearings include silver-lead-indium alloy, lead-cadmium-indium alloy, cadmium silver-copper-indium, silver-thallium-indium alloy, lead-tin-indium alloy, copper-tin Indium alloy, lead tin antimony arsenic indium alloy.
2. Ferromagnetic Alloy
Ferromagnetic alloys are also called Heusler alloys. The most widely used ferromagnetic alloy is copper manganese indium alloy (Cu / Mn / In).
3. Memory Alloy
Indium thallium alloy (In / Tl) and indium cadmium alloy (In / Cd) are memory alloys, which belong to the new generation of alloys.
4. Decorative Alloy
The addition of indium to the gold-silver-palladium-copper alloy used for ornaments can improve the hardness and durability of the ornaments and increase their color of the ornaments. The commonly used Au75 / Ag20 / In5 alloy is commonly known as “green gold”.
5. Dental And Gemstone Alloy
Indium alloy is also used in dentistry and gemstones. Its composition is usually: gold 5 to 65% / palladium 2 to 30% / silver 10 to 15% / copper 10 to 15% / indium 0.5 to 5%.
What is an Air Conditioning Vent for?
The Air Conditioning Vent is a small opening inside the air conditioner that lets fresh air from the outdoors come in and refresh the stale air in your room. This is also helpful when you want to exhaust out any smoke or unpleasant odor from your room.
How Does An Aircon Vent Work?
Aircon vents are mainly responsible for maintaining your home or office’s air pressure. Additionally, these small openings also keep you safe by filtering out debris that can make its way into your space. Installing one on your ceiling or wall, can also save you from potential additional costs down the line.
They Help Maintain Air Pressure
A functioning aircon system — and an HVAC one — operates by heating and cooling air for indoor air production. As the air that is conditioned gets pushed in, the existing air inside the house or space needs to get pushed out. The aircon vent fulfills this purpose by helping the system to pull the indoor air back and release it outside. This process is what allows people to get and maintain proper air pressure at home or in the office.
They Help Filter Out Debris and Preserve Air Quality
Are you the biggest anti-fan of dust and air impurities? If you are, then you have to thank your aircon system’s aircon vent. Like any home or office space, enclosed spaces are prone to accumulating large amounts of tiny to invisible pollutants at any given time. When inhaled, these harsh elements can affect your health and trigger different allergy-related attacks. What the air conditioner does is absorb air through the aircon filter and trap any contaminant that may affect your home. The aircon vent will also support this process by regulating the air inside and getting rid of any of these impurities.
They Help You Save on Your Energy Bill
If your ducts are installed properly along with your functioning aircon system, then you can expect to save on energy costs as the aircon will be performing at its best tip-top shape. It is also important to entrust the responsibility of installations and maintenance to aircon expert professionals to make sure they are done in compliance with industry standards.
A manual toothbrush is a hand-held brush made out of hard plastic. The toothbrush has soft plastic bristles for cleaning the gums and between the teeth. Manual toothbrushes are manipulated by the person using them, moving the brush up and down over the teeth and gums to remove plaque, food, and debris.
Tools similar/equivalent to a toothbrush have existed as early as 3500 BC, and have been around since then. The following are their benefits (for modern toothbrushes at least!):
Speed control - Manual brushes not only allow for more speed control but also provide users with a greater ability to adjust pressure around areas that are sensitive or painful.
They are customizable – Manual toothbrushes have almost a limitless variation. They are obtainable in a wide range of head sizes: small, medium, and large sizes, and several have a convenient tongue cleaner on the back. They are also available in different grips, angles, lengths, and bristle stiffness, i.e. soft, medium, or hard. They also come in limitless color variations.
Easy to travel with – Manual toothbrushes can be carried in a simple case and there are no concerns about damaging them. They are lightweight and almost unbreakable and easy to travel with.
They are affordable – Manual toothbrushes are available at almost any store and at significantly affordable prices.
Easy to maintain – Unlike electric brushes, they don’t need charging, batteries, or any other accessory.

Piano sound boards are thin boards commonly made of spruce approximately 3/8″ thick glued together and extend from the bottom of the piano on a vertical, and the tail of the piano on a grand, to the pin-block and then across the full width of the piano. The soundboard has a crown which is very important to the tone and resonance of the piano. The back of the soundboard has ribs made of wood that are glued to the soundboard to strengthen and support the crown. Wood for soundboards, usually spruce, needs to be light and elastic. ; The best results are obtained when the grain of the soundboard runs parallel to the bridges. ; The bridges are usually made from maple and their primary function is to transfer the string vibration to the soundboard. Older piano soundboards often form cracks, especially where the thin boards are glued together. ; This is not detrimental or life ending for the piano. ; However, it can cause buzzing from certain frequencies. It can be repaired with re-gluing or even shimming. ; Soundboards that have several cracks, mostly due to age and/or large fluctuations in humidity over the life of the board, can lose crowns which would result in dull lifeless tone quality. ; If the crown is lost, soundboard replacement may be necessary to obtain good power and tone. It is best to have a used piano checked by a qualified piano technician to fully evaluate the piano soundboard and its condition.
The sounds available to you when you play are not limited to what you do with your hands. Piano pedals (the levers at your feet) enrich the sound in various ways, opening out possibilities further than the keyboard, from subtle nuances in dynamic to bold changes in the tone.
Types of pedals on a piano
Sustain pedal (right)
Consider an acoustic piano. When a finger is taken away from a key, a “damper” pad stops the note from ringing out. The sustain pedal removes the dampers from the strings, allowing notes to ring out for longer, even when the keys are not held down anymore. That’s why it is also called the “damper” pedal. It is rare to find any piece of music or song that doesn’t use the sustain pedal. Legendary pianist Artur Rubinstein even called it the “soul of the piano”. So If you are learning on a keyboard that doesn’t have built-in pedals, then this is one that you really need. ;
Soft pedal aka “una corda pedal” (left)
Most strings in an acoustic piano are grouped in threes, with each group tuned to the same note. When played normally, the hammer strikes all three at the same time giving a full, bright sound. On a grand piano, the una corda pedal shifts the entire mechanism to the right, so the hammer only hits two of the three strings.
The resulting note is softer. Also, since the strings are hit by a different part of the hammer, the sound is muted and less bright. On older pianos, the hammer would only hit one of the three strings, hence “Una corda” meaning “one string”. On upright pianos, pushing the pedal moves the hammer mechanism closer to the string, making it softer but without altering the tone.
Sostenuto pedal (middle)
This is similar to a sustain pedal. The key difference is that it only holds notes that are already being played at the moment when the pedal is pressed down. Any notes that begin after the pedal is down are not affected, allowing for selective sustain without blurring the sound.
Since the sostenuto pedal is a relatively recent addition to the piano, it is rarely required for pieces before the late 20th century. Even so, many pianists use it when playing the work of earlier, more progressive composers like Debussy and Ravel.

Hydraulic cylinders are commonly found in industrial machines. Consisting of an actuator, it uses hydrostatic energy to generate force. Hydraulic cylinders essentially use fluid to create a pull or push force. Because they contain fluid, however, they require the use of seals. There are hydraulic seals found in most hydraulic cylinders. What are hydraulic seals exactly?
Overview of Hydraulic Seals
Hydraulic seals are gasket-like rings that are designed to seal areas between the components in a hydraulic cylinder. Hydraulic cylinders contain many different components, some of which are exposed to the fluid. To prevent fluid from leaking around these components, hydraulic seals are used. Hydraulic seals are designed to fit the components in a hydraulic cylinder while creating a leak-proof seal around them.
Hydraulic seals are essentially o-rings. However, they feature a groove within the lip that allows them to fit the components with which they are used. The groove will slide over the component to create a leak-proof seal. Even when the hydraulic cylinder’s piston moves and its fluid pressurizes, the component won’t leak. The hydraulic seal will keep the fluid within the appropriate container so that it doesn’t leak around the component.
Hydraulic Seal Materials
You can find hydraulic seals available in several materials. Rubber is a common material used for hydraulic seals. Rubber hydraulic seals are elastic, resistant to cracking, and long-lasting. There are also polyurethane hydraulic seals. Polyurethane hydraulic seals feature many of the same qualities as those made of rubber, but they are typically stronger and better protected against wear. While not as common as rubber or polyurethane, some hydraulic seals are made of polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE). PTFE is a synthetic material that’s flexible, strong and resistant to extreme temperatures.
Pump Composite Wear Ring Key Features
Pump wear rings are simple components, but they have a profound impact on pump reliability, efficiency, and safety.
Most centrifugal pump designs include replaceable rotating wear rings on the impeller (impeller wear rings) and stationary wear rings inside the casing (case wear rings). The wear rings in a pump serve three key purposes:
Create the contact area between rotating and stationary parts inside the pump
Reduce internal recirculation from pump discharge to pump suction or between stages
Create hydraulic forces which stabilize the pump rotor
The wear ring running clearance impacts pump discharge pressure, flow, efficiency, power consumption, vibration, and cavitation. Using composite wear rings with reduced clearance has a positive impact on all these factors.
Composite Centrifugal Pump Wear Ring Advantages
Long-term, large-scale field studies have shown that composite materials can improve pump life by up to 100%, reduce vibrations, and reduce seal leaks. Field tests and pump test stands have shown that reduce clearance can improve pump efficiency anywhere from 2-5% for typical process pumps. Additional pump composite wear ring material benefits include:
Eliminating the metal-to-metal contact points essentially eliminates the risk of galling or seizure
The wear rings will not seize or gall during slow roll or alignment
The pump will have a better tolerance of run-dry events and other process upsets, with a chance of surviving extended off-design conditions
Lower vibration due to improved damping at the wear rings
Fewer seal leaks due to reduced pump vibration and reduced shaft deflection due to tighter wear ring clearance
Higher efficiency due to lower leakage losses across the wear rings
Production
The first thing to consider when choosing between dry and liquid flavoring is, of course, the efforts and resources required to produce them. ;
Dry beverage flavors are most commonly produced by dry spraying, in which a mix of the desired flavor, water, and a carrier are atomized into hot air. At that point, the mixture cools quickly, trapping the desired flavors into their final powdered form. ;
Liquid flavors are a little more straightforward: you mix your desired flavors with your preferred carrier (and this varies depending on whether you are looking to produce water-soluble flavors, alcohol extracts, fruit flavors, etc.) instead of going through the dry spraying process. ;
Ultimately, liquid flavors are a simpler process, as dry spraying involves more steps and equipment. ;
The addition of fragrance to a candle formulation is a common practice in the United States. In fact, an estimated 75 to 80 percent of candles sold in the U.S. are scented. Candle fragrance manufacturers work closely with fragrance companies to develop candle fragrances that are not only pleasing but will burn safely and properly.
The aroma from a lighted scented candle is released through the evaporation of the fragrance from the hot wax pool and from the solid candle itself. Like unscented candles, properly-formulated scented candles will primarily produce water vapor and carbon dioxide when burned. The only difference is that a fragrance is also released with a scented candle.
Most scented candles contain a combination of natural and synthetic fragrances These fragrance materials may be derived from essential oils or from synthetic aroma chemicals. A well-made candle will contain only fragrance materials approved for candle use; the addition of fragrance to a candle formulation should be carefully monitored to ensure that the candle will burn cleanly and properly.
Candle manufacturers can select from more than 2,000 aroma chemicals and essential oils to develop scents that are both pleasing to consumers and compatible with candle use. These fragrance materials are safe, high-quality ingredients that are also found in many perfumes, bath soaps, lotions, and shampoos.
Various health and safety tests are conducted on the raw fragrance materials that are used in candles and other consumer products. Reputable candle manufacturers use only expertly-formulated fragrances specifically approved for candle use.
