Proper storage of automobile parts is essential to prevent corrosion, electrical damage, and structural deterioration caused by excess humidity. Controlling environmental factors, such as humidity and temperature, is crucial in preventing these issues. Well-maintained storage conditions not only preserve the integrity of the parts but also contribute to cost-effective and reliable automotive maintenance and repairs.
When storing automobile parts, moisture is a big threat. Here are some important things to know:
- Moisture can cause metal parts to corrode, leading to rust and deterioration
- Electrical parts can get damaged or short-circuited by moisture, causing expensive repairs or replacements
- Rubber components, such as belts and hoses, may become brittle and prone to breakage due to moisture
- Moisture can also damage rubber parts like belts and hoses, making them brittle and prone to breaking
- High humidity can lead to mould and mildew growth, compromising both part integrity and overall storage cleanliness
General Recommendation
Maintaining humidity levels below 50% is crucial. The recommended temperature range of 73.4–77°F (23–25°C) further aids in protecting auto parts from corrosion. Dehumidification can prevent moisture-related issues and ensure longevity of stored automobile parts.
