Q: Does this housing have a longer lifespan than standard gray housings?
A: No. The 66-0101 blue housing has identical durability and lifespan compared to gray housings. Expected service life is 5 to 8 years under normal warehouse conditions. The blue color does not provide additional protection; it is purely for identification and visibility purposes.

Q: Is this housing suitable for cold storage applications?
A: This housing is rated for cold storage use but will exhibit reduced flexibility at temperatures below 0 degrees Fahrenheit. At very low temperatures, the composite material may become brittle. For continuous cold storage operation, inspect the housing frequently for micro-cracks.
