ʻO nā mea holoi maʻamau he metala a iʻole ka plastic.Pono nā hui bolted kiʻekiʻe i nā mea holoi kila paʻakikī e pale i ka nalowale o ka hoʻouka mua ʻana ma muli o ka brinelling ma hope o ka hoʻohana ʻana i ka torque.He mea nui hoʻi nā mea holoi no ka pale ʻana i ka ʻino galvanic, ʻoi aku ka nui o ka hoʻokaʻawale ʻana i nā wili kila mai nā ʻili alumini.Hiki ke hoʻohana ʻia i nā noi wili, ma ke ʻano he bearing.Hoʻohana ʻia ka mea holoi ʻauʻau i ka wā ʻaʻole pono ke ʻano o ka hui ʻana o ka mea ʻōwili ʻia mai kahi hiʻohiʻona kumu kūʻai a i ʻole ma muli o ke kaohi ʻana o ka lewa.Hiki ke hoʻohana ʻia nā uhi no ka hoʻohaʻahaʻa ʻana i ka ʻaʻahu a me ke kuʻekuʻe ʻana, ma ka hoʻopaʻakikī ʻana i ka ʻili a i ʻole ka hāʻawi ʻana i kahi lubricant paʻa (ʻo ia hoʻi, kahi lubricating surface).
ʻAʻole ʻike ʻia ke kumu o ka huaʻōlelo;ʻO ka hoʻohana mua ʻana o ka huaʻōlelo i ka makahiki 1346, akā naʻe, ʻo ka manawa mua i hoʻopaʻa ʻia ai kona wehewehe ʻana ma 1611.
Hoʻohana ʻia nā kīʻaha Rubber a i ʻole ka fiber i loko o nā paipa (a i ʻole faucets, a i ʻole nā kīpē) ma ke ʻano he sila e kūʻē i ka kulu wai i kekahi manawa i kapa ʻia ma ke ʻano he mea holoi;akā, ʻoiai ke nānā aku nei lākou, ua hoʻolālā pinepine ʻia nā mea holoi a me nā gaskets no nā hana like ʻole a hana ʻia ʻokoʻa.
Hiki ke hoʻokaʻawale ʻia ka hapa nui o nā mea holoi lole i ʻekolu ʻano ākea;
ʻO nā mea holoi maʻemaʻe, ka mea e hohola i ka ukana, a pale i ka pōʻino o ka ʻili i hoʻopaʻa ʻia, a i ʻole e hāʻawi i kekahi ʻano insulation e like me ka uila.
ʻO nā mea holoi puna, loaʻa ka maʻalahi axial a hoʻohana ʻia e pale i ka hoʻopaʻa ʻana a i ʻole ka wehe ʻana ma muli o nā haʻalulu.
ʻO nā mea holoi laka, ka mea e pale ai i ka hoʻopaʻa ʻana a i ʻole ka wehe ʻana ma ka pale ʻana i ka hoʻololi ʻana o ka mea hoʻopaʻa;ʻO nā mea holoi paʻa ka mea maʻamau nō hoʻi nā mea holoi puna.
