Do steel strapping buckles need to be coated with anti-corrosion oil?

Whether the steel strapping buckle needs to be coated with anti-corrosion oil depends on the usage environment, material, and maintenance needs of the buckle. The following are several aspects regarding whether anti-corrosion oil needs to be applied:
1. Impact of usage environment:
Damp environment: If the steel strapping buckle is exposed to a damp and humid environment for a long time (such as coastal areas, areas with heavy rainfall, etc.), applying anti-corrosion oil can effectively prevent rust and corrosion, and extend its service life.
Highly corrosive environment: If the buckle comes into contact with acid, alkali or other corrosive substances (such as chemical factories, heavy industries, etc.), anti-corrosion oil can provide additional protection for the buckle and reduce the corrosion rate.
2. Material issues:
Galvanized or stainless steel material: Galvanized or stainless steel strapping buckles have strong corrosion resistance and usually do not require additional application of anti-corrosion oil because their surface already has certain anti-corrosion functions.
Ordinary carbon steel material: For steel strapping buckles made of ordinary carbon steel material, anti-corrosion oil is necessary, especially in harsh environments. Applying anti-corrosion oil can help prevent rust and extend the service life.
3. Long term outdoor use:
If the steel binding buckle is exposed to the outdoors for a long time, especially in the environment that needs to withstand weather change, ultraviolet radiation or extreme weather, the application of anti-corrosion oil can effectively increase the weather resistance and anti-aging performance of the buckle.
4. Add protective layer:
Applying anti-corrosion oil can form a protective film on the surface of the buckle, preventing direct contact of moisture, air, salt, etc. with the steel, thereby reducing the risk of oxidation and corrosion.
5. Maintenance and upkeep:
Regularly applying anti-corrosion oil, especially when there is wear and scratches on the surface of the steel tie buckle, can restore the protective effect and prevent the exposed metal parts from quickly oxidizing and rusting.
