Protect Your Metalworking Fluid: Secure Storage Solutions.
Metalworking fluids are a vital component in achieving optimal machining performance, and proper warehouse storage is essential to maintaining their integrity and extending their lifespan. Utilizing a dedicated warehouse space provides a secure and organized environment, protecting these specialized lubricants from contaminants and degradation. Storage should prioritize shelving units constructed from durable, corrosion-resistant materials like steel, allowing for efficient stacking and easy access. Maintain a consistent, well-ventilated area to minimize the buildup of any potential fumes. Store containers upright to prevent sediment settling, and clearly label each container with the fluid type, batch number, and date of receipt. Regularly inspect containers for leaks or damage, and promptly address any issues. Warehouses offer robust security and protection from direct sunlight, which can accelerate fluid breakdown. Furthermore, a warehouse’s inherent structure provides a stable, level surface, minimizing movement and vibration – factors that can negatively impact fluid quality. Strategic layout and organization within the warehouse ensures efficient inventory management and minimizes handling, ultimately safeguarding the fluid’s performance characteristics.
Storage Size/Dimensions: Minimum 150 square feet, 20ft x 7.5ft area. Height clearance: 10 feet. A secondary storage area of 50 sq ft (10ft x 5ft) should be allocated for smaller containers.
Storage Conditions: Dry storage is essential. The area must be well-ventilated to prevent vapor buildup. Storage surfaces should be concrete or epoxy-coated to facilitate easy cleaning. Avoid storing near sources of ignition or incompatible materials.
Special Handling: Metalworking fluids are considered a potentially hazardous material. All containers should be clearly labeled with hazard warnings. Use secondary containment (e.g., drip trays) to capture spills. Consider using protective padding for larger drums during handling.
Stacking/Shelving: Pallet storage is recommended for bulk containers. Shelving units with adjustable shelves are suitable for smaller cans and bottles. Max stacking height should be limited to 5 shelves, with a maximum load of 100 lbs per shelf.
Access Requirements: A standard 12ft wide loading dock is required for truck access. The warehouse door should be a minimum of 10ft wide for easy maneuverability. A clearance space of 8ft around each pallet storage area is needed for forklift operation. Ensure adequate aisle space for equipment movement – at least 10ft wide.
