Multi layer electrophoretic primer for the entire vehicle to prevent internal corrosion of steel
Ordinary trucks are mostly painted with simple paint, with thin paint surface and poor adhesion. Salt spray can easily penetrate the paint surface and corrode the steel substrate. Export heavy-duty trucks suitable for high salt spray conditions must be equipped with
2, Thickened anti-corrosion coating for chassis/chassis armor
Electrophoretic primer is only used for basic rust prevention, facing seawater salt spray and offshore moisture, and also requires surface protection. High salt spray exclusive models will be sprayed with thick wear-resistant and anti-corrosion topcoat, with a focus on covering exposed areas such as beams, suspensions, brackets, and chassis accessories. Some high-end models are equipped with flexible chassis armor coating, which has salt spray resistance, erosion resistance, and corrosion resistance characteristics. It can effectively isolate seawater, salt spray, humid air, and metal contact, and resist corrosion damage caused by daily driving mud and water erosion.
3, Galvanized screws for the entire vehicle+rust prevention and passivation treatment
Ordinary iron screws are the most rust prone accessories under salt spray conditions. If the screws become stuck due to rust, it can lead to difficulties in later maintenance and disassembly, as well as loose and ineffective accessories. High salt spray export heavy-duty truck, with all exposed bolts, nuts, and bracket small parts using hot-dip galvanizing anti rust process+passivation treatment. Its anti-oxidation and salt spray resistance far exceed ordinary blackened screws, and it is not easy to rust or get stuck after long-term use, greatly reducing the difficulty of later maintenance.
4, Special sealing and rust prevention configuration for hydraulic and pipeline interfaces
Salt spray is prone to adhere to the hydraulic piston rod, pipeline joints, and air pipe joints, causing oxidation, rust, poor sealing, and slight oil and gas leakage. The regular salt spray version of the car will have the piston rod treated with anti rust coating, and all pipeline interfaces will be equipped with sealed protective covers. Special anti rust grease will be sprayed at the factory, and the pipeline layout will be optimized to reduce exposed dead corners and avoid salt spray accumulation and corrosion of precision pipeline accessories.
5, Circuit waterproof and anti-corrosion protection configuration
Coastal salt spray moisture has strong conductivity, which can easily cause plug oxidation, circuit short circuits, and electrical control failures. Customized models with high salt spray are equipped with waterproof and anti-corrosion sealing designs for all electrical plugs, junction boxes, and sensor interfaces, as well as specialized waterproof rubber sleeves. The wiring is wrapped with moisture-proof materials to effectively prevent salt spray from entering the circuit system, avoiding frequent circuit failures and inability to start the vehicle.
Summary
Choosing a car in high salt spray areas is not about appearance and horsepower, but about the details of the vehicle's anti-corrosion process. The five core configurations of electrophoretic chassis, thickened anti-corrosion coating, galvanized fasteners, sealed pipelines, and waterproof circuits are indispensable. Our factory specializes in customizing anti-corrosion enhanced export heavy-duty trucks for high salt spray conditions such as coastal areas, islands, and nearshore mining areas. We have upgraded the anti-corrosion protection system in all aspects, effectively solving the problem of vehicle rust and aging, making overseas customers more worry free and with higher residual value.
