  • Application Method: High-pressure spray (15–20 bar), full undercarriage + chassis coverage
  • Thickness: 0.15–0.25 mm dry film
  • Coverage Areas: Frame rails, suspension components, fuel tanks, brake lines, electrical junctions
  • Post-Treatment: Air-dry for 4 hours; protected storage pre-loading
  • Duration of Protection: Up to 12 months in marine environments

Advantages:

  • Non-toxic, non-flammable, compliant with IMO and IECSC standards
  • Penetrates crevices; self-healing properties
  • Eliminates need for post-arrival re-lubrication in 92% of cases (based on 2025 field data)

Note: Wax treatment is included standard in RO-RO and Flat Rack shipments; optional add-on for Bulk Cargo at +$85/unit.


5. Operational Recommendations

Scenario Recommended Method Rationale
Exporting 50+ operable dump trucks to Nigeria RO-RO Cost/unit minimized, rapid discharge, low damage risk
Shipping disassembled units to inland Chile Flat Rack Accommodates height/width; integrates with rail
Budget-constrained project in Myanmar Bulk Cargo Lowest freight cost; acceptable for non-critical timelines
High-value articulated dump trucks (e.g., XCMG ADT) Flat Rack Superior load control, wax protection critical

6. Compliance & Documentation

All shipments comply with:
IMO International Convention for Safe Containers (CSC)
IMDG Code (for fuel/wax residues)
China Customs Export Declaration (Customs Tariff Code: 8704.10)
Bill of Lading (B/L) with Condition-at-Loading certification


7. Conclusion

For fleet managers and construction logistics planners, RO-RO remains the optimal balance of cost, speed, and equipment integrity for standard commercial dump truck exports from China. Flat Rack is preferred for oversized or premium units requiring maximum protection. Bulk Cargo is viable only under strict cost constraints and with acceptance of elevated handling risks.

Mandatory wax spraying is a non-negotiable component of SEA LION’s integrity assurance program, reducing post-arrival corrosion claims by 76% since 2023.
