How to deal with rust on hoist chain

1. Causes of rust on hoist chain
The hoist chain is used for a long time and is easily affected by the indoor and outdoor climate, humidity, chemicals, etc., which leads to rust on the chain surface. Rust will reduce the smoothness of the chain surface, thus affecting the normal use of users.

2. Treatment methods for rust on hoist chain
1. Cleaning treatment

When dealing with rust on hoist chain, the chain must be cleaned first. You can use appropriate solvents or cleaning fluids to clean the chain to remove impurities such as oil and oxides on the chain surface for subsequent treatment. After cleaning, wipe the moisture on the chain surface in time.

2. Polishing treatment

Steel chains are prone to rust during use and can be treated by mechanical polishing or chemical polishing. The surface of the chain after polishing forms a bright layer, which not only ensures the smoothness of the chain surface, but also enhances the anti-oxidation ability of the chain surface and prolongs its service life.

3. Coating treatment

Coating treatment is a common chain surface treatment method that can play a role in rust prevention and wear resistance. The coating material is generally epoxy resin, which covers the surface of the chain to form a film-like protective layer. The coating treatment has the advantages of simple process, significant effect, and economical and affordable, and is suitable for the protective treatment of various types of hoist chains.

3. Anti-rust maintenance of hoist chains

1. It is recommended to add a layer of anti-rust oil on the hoist chain for maintenance, which can play a good protective role.

2. After using the hoist chain, put the chain away in a dry and ventilated place in time to avoid the chain being in a wet state for a long time to prevent rust.

3. Regularly check the surface condition of the chain and perform maintenance in time, which can greatly extend the service life of the chain.

[Summary]

The above are the treatment methods and maintenance suggestions for hoist chain rust. I hope it can help readers better maintain the hoist chain and extend its service life. When dealing with the rust of the hoist chain, you can also take a variety of methods according to the actual situation. Choosing the most appropriate treatment method can achieve better results.
