How to inspect the quality of the umbrellas
Regarding how to check the quality of a batch of umbrella goods, and how to judge the management level of a factory, here we can take the following steps,
- Look at the fabric of the umbrella; a high-quality umbrella will use a high-quality fabric. We can see the fabric they use as the surface of the umbrella, the smooth fabric is suitable for rain. If it’s a sunshade, they use a fabric that’s coated with silver glue or vinyl, because it’s coated with silver glue or polyethylene, which protects it from ultraviolet light.
- Look at the material of the canopy; the material of the canopy is usually plastic or metal. We can gently rotate it with our fingers and then pass the appearance check. If the top of the umbrella can be rotated, it means that the adhesion is not good. We can see plating quality and so on.
- Look at the frame of the umbrella; most of the mass of the umbrella depends on the quality of the umbrella bone. At present, most umbrellas on the market have 6 to 16 ribs. The more ribs, the higher the wind resistance. The umbrella is more stable if there is a thin elastic wire between the umbrella bone and the umbrella bone. If you buy a parasol, you have to choose a lighter umbrella stand, because the parasol is used on sunny days, and wind resistance is not high, so a light umbrella stands easy to use and carry; If they use an iron umbrella stand, if not careful maintenance after the rain, it is easy to rust, so not very experienced manufacturers. If they are using a fiber or aluminum alloy umbrella frame the best, is not only lightweight but also very good windproof effect. In addition, when looking at the umbrella bone, we can also gently pull one of the umbrella bones with our fingers to confirm whether it is firm or not.
- Look at the quality of the umbrella; the quality of the umbrella, the fine workmanship, not only the edge of each umbrella is very fine, there is no extra line, the connection between the umbrella and the umbrella is seamless, and the needle is very thin, the seam is very strong. Poor quality umbrella needle sparse, exposed thread.
- Measure the wind resistance of the umbrella; open the umbrella and pull it back hard to see if it will flower and, if so, whether it will return to its original state. If the umbrella does not bloom after flowering or quickly returned to its original shape, this means that the umbrella has strong wind resistance, and is a good umbrella.
- Measure the water resistance of an umbrella. You can put a little water on the umbrella and observe the raindrops on the umbrella. If the raindrops immediately fall off or small drops appear on the surface of the umbrella, it means that the waterproof coating is good. If the umbrella permeates the water once, it is less waterproof.
