CableRail Care & Maintenance
The protective chromium oxide film on the surface of stainless steel
gives it superior corrosion resistance. Properly maintained stainless
steel provides excellent luster, strength and durability. In most
applications stainless steel won't rust or stain even after many years
of service, but stainless steel is not rust or stain proof. When stainless steel comes in
contact with chloride salts, sulfides or other rusting metals, it can
discolor or even rust and corrode. With proper care and maintenance,
however, stainless steel can remain beautiful and functional for years
to come, even when it's exposed to marine environments, polluted
surroundings, salted highways, or anywhere it might be exposed to
corrosive elements.
- Clean stainless regularly with soap and warm water. Never clean with mineral acids or bleaches.
- Never leave stainless in contact with iron, steel or other metals. This can cause rust spots or corrosion.
- Always remove stains or rust spots as soon as possible with either soap and water or a brass, silver, stainless or chrome cleaner.
- Never use coarse abrasives like sandpaper or steel wool on stainless. Use synthetic Scotch pads instead.
- Frequently inspect cable assemblies for proper tension and re-tension as necessary. This is important.
