Transport and storing
Transportation and storing of Argo cable protection pipes is simple thanks to their light weight and because they are extremely impact and wear-out resistant. No special protection measures are needed but we do recommend that you handle the pipes sensibly. Protect them against sharp objects and edges that could damage the pipes. When they are stacked protect them against sliding but do not stack them higher than 1m.
When storing pipes on palettes which will be then stacked one on the other, make sure that the frames of one palette are suitably placed on the frames of the other palette. Avoid dragging the pipes over sharp edges or over the floor when loading or unloading. We recommend that you use appropriate tools – for example bands for lifting. Despite their high UV–resistance, pipes should not be stored unprotected in the open for more than one year.
