| Application Method | High-pressure spray, brush-assisted in joints |
| Coverage Areas | Undercarriage, track links, hydraulic cylinders, exposed fasteners, boom pivot points |
| Film Thickness | 50–80 µm (uniform layer) |
| Drying Time (Pre-shipment) | Minimum 24 hours at 20°C, 50% RH |
| Salt Spray Resistance (ASTM B117) | ≥500 hours (verified per batch) |
| Reapplication Required | After 6 months of storage or post-transit inspection |
4.2 Benefits of Wax Spraying
- Forms a self-healing, non-drying barrier against moisture and chlorides.
- Penetrates crevices and inaccessible joints.
- Reduces post-arrival maintenance and warranty claims.
- Complies with ISO 9227 (corrosion testing standards).
5. Recommendation by Use Case
| Customer Profile | Recommended Method | Rationale |
|---|---|---|
| Large Construction Fleet (10+ units, operational) | RO-RO + Wax Spray | Fast turnaround, minimal reassembly, cost-effective at scale |
| Remote Project Site, Non-Operational Units | Flat Rack + Wax Spray + Tarpaulin | Maximum protection, handles irregular dimensions |
| Budget-Constrained Exporter | Bulk Cargo + Enhanced Wax + Desiccants | Lowest cost; requires strict post-arrival inspection and re-lubrication |
6. Compliance & Documentation
All shipments must adhere to:
– IMSBC Code (for bulk)
– CTU Code (for Flat Rack containers)
– RoRo Safety Guidelines (IMO)
– ISPM 15 (wood dunnage, if used)
– Bill of Lading, Packing List, Certificate of Origin, Wax Treatment Certificate
7. Conclusion
For excavator brush mowers exported from China, RO-RO shipping with industrial wax spraying offers the optimal balance of cost, speed, and operational readiness for most fleet operators. Flat Rack containers are preferred for non-standard or fragile configurations requiring maximum protection. Bulk cargo remains a cost-driven option but demands rigorous corrosion mitigation and post-arrival refurbishment planning.
Implementing a standardized wax spraying protocol reduces field failures by up to 68% (per 2025 SEA LION field data) and is considered a non-negotiable safeguard for all ocean exports.
