4. Corrosion Protection: Wax Spraying Protocol
Marine environments expose heavy equipment to chloride-laden air and condensation, accelerating corrosion on hydraulic components, undercarriages, and structural steel.
Recommended Anti-Corrosion Treatment:
- Method: Electrostatic wax spraying (EWS)
- Material: Hydrophobic, solvent-based corrosion inhibitor (C.I. Grade 7, ISO 12944-6)
- Thickness: 25–30 μm uniform coating
- Coverage Areas:
- Undercarriage (track links, rollers, idlers)
- Hydraulic cylinder rods
- Exposed weld joints
- Engine compartment (non-electrical zones)
- Durability: 90-day salt spray resistance (ASTM B117)
- Removal: Biodegradable citrus-based solvent (post-delivery)
SEA LION Standard: All AGT units exported via any method receive factory-applied wax spray at origin (pre-shipment). RO-RO and Flat Rack units receive re-inspection and touch-up at load port.
5. Method-Specific Recommendations
RO-RO Shipping
- Advantages: Fast turnaround, reduced mechanical stress, ideal for operational readiness.
- Limitations: Limited global RO-RO port availability; not viable for inland destinations without feeder logistics.
- Use Case: Direct delivery to coastal construction zones (e.g., Rotterdam, Jebel Ali, Houston).
Bulk Cargo
- Advantages: Lowest cost; suitable for high-volume, non-urgent shipments.
- Limitations: High risk of surface damage and corrosion due to poor segregation and moisture exposure.
- Use Case: Export of reconditioned units or spare-heavy shipments where cost outweighs condition risk.
Flat Rack Containers
- Advantages: Accommodates oversized dimensions; enables containerized security and intermodal transfer.
- Limitations: Higher cost; exposure to weather unless wrapped in VCI (Vapor Corrosion Inhibitor) film.
- Use Case: AGT-450 units destined for rail-truck final mile delivery (e.g., Eastern Europe, Southeast Asia).
6. Integrated Logistics Recommendation
| Scenario | Recommended Method | Rationale |
|---|---|---|
| Urgent delivery of 5+ operational units | RO-RO | Fast, low-damage, wax protection remains intact |
| Budget export of 10+ units (disassembled) | Bulk Cargo | Cost-driven; wax spray essential due to prolonged hold exposure |
| Single AGT-450 to mountain construction site | Flat Rack + VCI wrap | Size compliance; enables crane-offloading at non-RO-RO port |
7. Conclusion
For AGT excavator exports from China, RO-RO shipping offers the optimal balance of protection, speed, and cost for operational units, particularly when combined with standardized wax spraying. Bulk cargo remains viable for cost-sensitive, non-operational shipments, provided anti-corrosion protocols are strictly enforced. Flat Rack containers serve a niche in oversized or multimodal logistics but require additional protective measures.
SEA LION International enforces mandatory wax-based corrosion inhibition across all export streams, ensuring compliance with ISO 9227 and client durability expectations.
