♦ Cleaning and drying

  • Rinsing with clean water

Immediately after fishing, you need to rinse the ropes with clean water to remove salt, sediment and organic residues to avoid chemical corrosion or microbial growth.

  • Drying

Place the rope in a cool and ventilated place to dry after cleaning, avoiding exposure to the sun to accelerate the aging of ultraviolet rays; if it needs to be dried quickly, use a soft cloth to wipe the surface moisture gently.

♦ Storage environment

  • Avoid light and moisture

Long-term storage should choose a cool and dry place, avoid direct sunlight or humid environment, it is recommended to use a special storage box or hanging in the ventilation bracket.

  • Keep away from chemicals

Prohibit contact with corrosive substances such as mothballs, insecticides, acid and alkali solvents to prevent damage to the material properties.

♦ Maintenance

  • Regular inspection

Before use, check the rope body for cuts, broken strands, kinks, etc., focusing on eliminating knots and areas in contact with metal parts.

  • Unfolding method

Spread the rope counterclockwise from the rope loop to avoid kinks; if the rope is to be released from the rope shaft, make sure that the tension is even to prevent localized abrasion.

  • Avoid overloading

Prohibit overloading or strong pulling to prevent breakage due to excessive instantaneous tension; even speed should be used when walking fish to minimize dynamic impact.

♦ Special Protection

  • Maintenance of metal parts

If the rope is equipped with metal connecting rings or hooks, they should be cleaned separately to prevent rust and grease to prevent rust and sticking.

  • Low temperature protection

Although the fiber is resistant to low temperatures (-269℃ is still ductile), it should be slowly warmed up to room temperature after being used in a low-temperature environment to avoid sudden cooling and heating.
