QuietJoint is a silicone-faced foam that compresses to fill interior openings. The insulation can be used to fill gaps between the ends of permanent or movable partitions as well as at the intersection of interior walls and curtain walls. In addition to its thermal-insulating qualities, QuietJoint acts as a noise dampener, with an STC53 or OITC38 rating that meets or exceeds that of the wall or partition. The insulation is available in full-story, 10-ft segments. EMSEAL Joint Systems; 508-836-0280; www.emseal.com

The Stoody 964 AP-G is a general-purpose hard-facing, flux-cored wire that can be welded in a vertical position, which can save time in the field because the equipment does not have to be moved into place for repairs. The wire can achieve a 64 Rockwell C hardness and produce crack-free deposits on Series 300 stainless and manganese steels. Other base metals have to be pre-heated and post-heated as needed. Packaged in 33-lb spools, the wire is available in 0.045-in. and 1/16-in. diameters. Thermadyne Industries; 636-728-3000; www.thermadyne.com
