During the transportation of hot-dip galvanized steel planks, special attention should be paid to protecting the galvanized layer, preventing deformation, and ensuring safety.
Packaging and Securing Requirements
Secure Bundling: Steel planks of the same specification should be neatly stacked with labels or steel stamps facing outward. Use two-way four-sided strapping to prevent shifting during transport.
Collision Prevention Measures: Use flexible lifting straps or steel cables with pads to prevent forklifts or hoisting equipment from damaging the galvanized layer or deforming the panels.
Stacking and Securing
Placement After Unloading: Place on wooden blocks and stack evenly, not too high, to prevent tipping.
Anti-Slip Securing: For full truck transport, use ropes to securely bind steel planks that extend beyond the truck bed sides.
Environmental and Operational Precautions
Avoid Contact with Seawater: Prolonged exposure to seawater can corrode the zinc layer and affect service life.
Handle With Care: Heavy dropping or random stacking is strictly prohibited. Storage areas should be level, free of standing water, and measures should be taken to prevent deformation.
