Important Information
Storage and Handling
Check the following immediately aer delivery:
› Completeness of delivery (as per the delivery note)
› Any damage to the packaging
› Any damage to the materials
› Improper storage or transport of hardware parts can aect the surface quality. To prevent this, the
following points must be observed:
› It must be ensured that the room air is permanently dry
› Major temperature uctuations leading to condensation must be prevented. Condensation on
hardware causes the galvanised surfaces to be attacked
› Avoid aggressive vapours from cleaning agents or assembly aids such as silicone and the like, even
for a short time. Vapours from such substances can very quickly lead to corrosion of hardware
› Salty air polluted by trade and industry also leads to corrosion on galvanised surfaces and is also
not suitable for storage areas.
Transport
Finished elements must be stored and transported as follows:
› Upright
› Slip and tilt secured on suitable surfaces (e.g. G. transport frames)
› Protected from dirt and damage
› Avoid loads on mechanical connections!
› Use special transport devices!
For intermediate storage outdoors:
› ensure elements and hardware are covered or packaged
