3000DCDC

The 10" Ames 3000DCDC was produced from the early 1970?s until 1986. The body was available in galvanized or fused epoxy coating. The DC can be identified by the two separate check assemblies bolted together. The very similar DCA is a fused body between check assemblies. Check assemblies were a knuckle joint style made of stainless steel. A check retainer clip is required to remove the 4? and 6? check assemblies. 8? and 10? devices require a tong tool for removal of check assemblies. Bronze check seats were replaceable and a seat removal tool is required to service.
