The question is...are Wagos usable after at trip through the washing machine?

[FatAlan]

As title. Based on wagos recovered from my washing machine.

As long as they are dried out with no moisture I would see no reason why not...
if you were to use them with moisture in then might end up with corroded ends of cables and possible resistance.

 

[FatAlan]

Suppose the question is whether the metallic clamps in the connectors are susceptible to corrosion from water?

 

[Andy78]

Only if you're using them to connect up said washing machine with a cooker, hob, and God knows what else.

If it was a Patek Philippe I might understand this but not Wagos, bin em.

Bit short in the Wago department then Al? lol

Empty your pockets!
You must live alone. A wife would never let any foreign materials enter the washing machine, and I have bleeding ears to prove it!

Wagos are not about expense but convenience.

I spent 15 minutes searching the van today for a five way and found one in the side door door seal.

I've not felt levels of joy since a sixteen year old girlfriend let me get to third base.



















No this was not last week.... ;-)

Bin them, it's not the water that is the problem, many detergents are surprisingly corrosive.

I have put the mobile phone in the machine. always check me pokets now.

 

[Andy78]

Check your pockets is my advice. It was bits of earth sleeving, screws, and rubble chunks that killed the last washing machine in our house
