I passed a truck full of bags this morning.
(Insert your punchline here.)
These were big, heavy, completely-loaded bags.
(Go on, get it out of your system.)
A flatbed with dozens of them.
And I thought: “Are those Transformer Bags?” Full proper name: PIG® Transformer Containment Bag—one of our newer products, made for safe handling and transport of electrical transformers.
Who knew those things are filled with mineral oil that acts as coolant? (also known as transformer oil, I’ve learned). Next time you see a transformer hanging on an electrical pole, you’re looking at something a lot like a drum of oil. When they need repairing or replacement, these bags of ours come in handy: to say they’re strong and have absorbent capacity is an understatement.
Anyway, on the door of this truck that I was passing was the name of a local landscaping supply company. So instead of transformers, these bags must have held mulch or gravel or something.
Oh, well. At least you got it out of your system.
