Rust prevention should follow the transport duration
Rust prevention should be more specific than saying protect against rust. The RFQ should state shipping method, expected transport duration, storage time after arrival, and environment. Sea freight, air freight, and short local transport need different rust prevention periods.
Wooden case, hard tube, and carton fit different orders
Short parts or small batches may use carton packing. Long parts or higher-risk transport may need hard tube or wooden case. Wooden case fits long-distance and heavy goods, hard tube protects single or small-quantity long parts, and carton fits light standard parts.
Distributor labels and long part support should be confirmed together
Distributor orders should state whether distributor labels, neutral labels, carton marks, carton numbers, and batches are needed. Long part support, end protection, nut fixing, and bending prevention support should be written together with the packing method.
RFQ checklist
- Rust prevention: protection method, transport duration, sea freight or air freight, and storage time after arrival.
- Packing: carton, wooden case, hard tube, internal fixing, and long part support.
- Labels: distributor labels, neutral labels, model, length, quantity, batch, and carton number.
- Shipment records: packing photos, label photos, loading photos, and carton mark photos.
