Ocean shipping exposes diamond blade steel cores to salt air and moisture that cause rust before products reach customers.
Rust on diamond blade steel cores is one of the most common damage claims on ocean shipments from Asia to Europe and the Americas. Salt air penetrates carton vents, condenses in container temperature cycles, and attacks unprotected steel within days. Protec Tools applies rust inhibitor treatment and VCI packaging on export orders, but importers must maintain protection through final delivery.
Factory and Transit Protection
- VCI paper or film wrapping on individual blades.
- Sealed PE bags inside corrugated cartons.
- Container desiccant units on ocean freight loads.
Importer Receiving Steps
- Inspect cartons for water staining before opening.
- Open and inspect random samples from each container immediately.
- Store blades in climate-controlled warehouse within 48 hours of delivery.
- Do not stack heavy pallets on blade cartons during storage.
