Precautions for storage of rubber hose

1.Storage time
A rotation planning system should be used to minimize the storage time of the rubber tube. If long-term storage cannot be avoided and the following recommendations cannot be observed, the rubber tube should be thoroughly inspected before use.
2. Physical storage conditions
Rubber tube storage must avoid mechanical stress, including transient stretching, compression or deformation, to avoid contact with sharp or sharp objects. The rubber tube is preferably stored on a suitable stand or placed on a dry floor. The rubber tube wrapped in the coil must be stored horizontally and the rubber tubes should not be stacked. If stacking cannot be avoided, the stack height should not cause permanent deformation of the underlying rubber tube. As one of the regulations, try to avoid the rubber tube around the column or the hook. If the rubber tube is shipped in a straight tube, it is recommended to store it horizontally without bending it.
3. Contact with other materials
Rubber hoses must not be exposed to solvents, fuels, oils, greases, unstable chemicals, acids, disinfectants, or general organic liquids. Moreover, any type of rubber can be damaged by contact with certain materials or mixtures, including manganese, iron, copper and their alloys. Rubber hoses should be protected from contact with polyvinyl chloride (PVC) or wood or cloth impregnated with miscellaneous oil.
4. Temperature and humidity
Recommended storage temperature: 10 degrees Celsius to 25 degrees Celsius. Note: Do not store the rubber tube at temperatures above 40 degrees Celsius or below 0 degrees Celsius. Special care should be taken when moving rubber hoses below minus 15 degrees Celsius. The rubber tube shall not be stored in the heat source accessory, and the relative humidity shall not exceed 65%.
5. Exposure to heat sources
The temperature limit described in point 4 must be observed. If it is not possible, insulation should be used to protect the rubber tube from heat sources.
6. Exposure to light
The storage compartment used to store the rubber tubing should be kept dark, especially from direct sunlight or strong artificial light. If the storage room has any openings covered by windows or glass, it should be shielded.
7. Exposure to oxygen and ozone
The rubber tube should be properly packaged or stored in a closed container to avoid exposure to air. Ozone-free equipment should not be placed in the storage room. Ozone has a particularly strong effect on all rubber products.
8. Exposure to electric or magnetic fields
Any conditions that may create an electric or magnetic field should be avoided in the storage room, including exposure to high voltage cables or high frequency generators.
