1. Cleaning and maintenance
During use, rubber hoses are subjected to a variety of structures, such as liquids, gases, greases, corrosive substances, and so on. These structures can stick to the inner wall of the tube, causing problems such as clogging and aging of the tube. Therefore, it is necessary to clean the rubber tube regularly.

The cleaning method is relatively simple, we only need to wash it with water or cleaning solution, and then dry it with a cloth or paper towel to maintain the rubber tube.

2. Lubrication and maintenance
During the use of rubber pipes, problems such as hardening and aging may occur, resulting in the pipes becoming prone to breakage. In order to avoid this from happening, we can carry out lubrication maintenance to prolong the life of the rubber hose.

The lubrication method is also very simple, you only need to choose some lubricant specifically for rubber materials and spray it on the surface of the rubber tube.

3. Avoid sun exposure
Rubber pipes are easy to be exposed to the sun, and the long time of sun exposure will cause the rubber to become brittle, which will affect the normal use of the pipe. Therefore, when storing the rubber tubing, direct exposure to sunlight should be avoided and it is best to keep it in a cool place.

4. Avoid the environment being too humid
The rubber pipe should not be too wet, otherwise it is easy to cause the rubber material to age under humidity, and there will be water leakage and water seepage. It is recommended that when storing rubber tubing, it should be avoided in a humid environment and the surface of the pipe should be kept dry.
