With any metal machinery, rust is bound to happen. There seems to be somewhat of a divisive stance on rust: some think it means the machine is in a state of disrepair and needs to be replaced, while others think that rust is fine and can be ignored. Both are partly right. The good news: some rust doesn’t mean your machine needs to be replaced, but it does mean some TLC is in order!
Below are two of the main reasons you should remove rust.
Keeps Things Up and Running
Removing rust allows you to take a closer look at how your machines run and operate. You may notice that rust has built up in certain areas, causing clogging, slower run times, or less smooth runs. Cleaning off and out rust is a great way to get rid of gunk and get a good inspection of your machine!
Safety
At the end of the day, safety comes first and foremost. And while rust is an inevitable part of machinery, that doesn’t mean it is safe! Rusting machinery can malfunction easier, and start making machinery not perform well. This only increases the risk of breakdowns and people getting hurt.
Most rust treatments use toxic chemicals, or sandblasting, which requires specific equipment. Some treatments just cover the rust instead of treating it. It is important to go with a trusted company that uses safe products for your rust removal!
