Declaration
Gerlinger Foundry & Machine Works, Inc. dba Gerlinger Steel & Supply Co. would like to inform any customers or end users that all products sold may contain trace amounts of chemicals listed in California’s Safe Drinking Water & Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986.

Gerlinger Steel cannot foresee all uses of their products (both intended and unintended uses) and as a result has opted to provide a general warning of known chemical presence.
