Re: $450,000,000 Aggregate Principal Amount of 5.75% Senior Notes due 2018 of Harsco Corporation offered through Underwriters

Ladies and Gentlemen:

     We are acting as counsel for Harsco Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), in connection with the issuance and sale of $450,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 5.75% Senior Notes due 2018 of the Company (the “Notes”), pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, dated as of May 12, 2007 (the “Underwriting Agreement”), entered into by and among the Company and J.P. Morgan Securities Inc., Citigroup Global Markets Inc. and Greenwich Capital Markets, Inc., acting as representatives of the several underwriters named therein (collectively, the “Underwriters”). The Notes will be issued pursuant to an indenture (as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified through May 15, 2008, the “Indenture”), to be entered into by and between the Company and The Bank of New York, as trustee (the “Trustee”).

     In connection with the opinion expressed herein, we have examined such documents, records and matters of law as we have deemed relevant or necessary for purposes of such opinion. Based on the foregoing, and subject to the further limitations, qualifications and assumptions set forth herein, we are of the opinion that the Notes, when they are executed by the Company and authenticated by the Trustee in accordance with the Indenture and issued and delivered to the Underwriters against payment therefor in accordance with the terms of the Underwriting Agreement, will constitute valid and binding obligations of the Company.

     For purposes of the opinion expressed herein, we have assumed that (i) the definitive terms of the Notes will be established in accordance with the provisions of the Indenture, (ii) the Indenture will be duly executed and delivered by the Company and (iii) the Trustee will authorize, execute and deliver the Indenture and the Indenture will be the valid, binding and enforceable obligation of the Trustee.

     The opinion expressed herein is limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, fraudulent transfer and fraudulent conveyance, voidable preference, moratorium or other similar laws and related regulations and judicial doctrines from time to time in effect relating to or affecting creditors’ rights generally, and by general equitable principles and public policy

     We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as Exhibit 5.1 to the Current Report on Form 8-K dated the date hereof filed by the Company and incorporated by reference into the Registration Statement on Form S-3, as amended (Registration No. 333-150825) (the “Registration Statement”), filed by the Company to effect the registration of the Notes under the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Act”) and to the reference to Jones Day under the caption “Legal Matters” in the prospectus constituting a part of such Registration Statement.
