Nānā lole:

Hiki i kēia lole ke hoʻokō i ke kūlana GB / T, ISO standard, JIS standard, US standard.E nānā ʻia nā lole a pau ma mua o ka hoʻouna ʻana e like me ka maʻamau o ka ʻōnaehana ʻehā ʻAmelika.

ʻO ka huaʻōlelo "kūpono wai" e wehewehe i kahi pae e hiki ai i nā kulu wai ke pulu a komo i kahi lole.Hoʻohana kekahi poʻe i nā huaʻōlelo wai-kūpaʻa a me ka wai-repellent ma ke ʻano like, aʻo kekahi e hoʻopaʻapaʻa ana he like ke kūpaʻa wai a me ka wai.ʻOiaʻiʻo, ʻo nā lole pale ua ʻike ʻia hoʻi he wai-kūpaʻa i waena o ka wai-repellent a me nā lole wai.Manaʻo ʻia nā lole a me nā lole pale wai e maloʻo i ka ua maʻalahi a me ka ua nui.No laila hāʻawi lākou i ka pale maikaʻi i ka ua a me ka hau ma mua o nā lole pale wai.Eia nō naʻe, i ka wā pulu lōʻihi, ʻaʻole hiki i nā lole i hana ʻia me nā lole pale wai ke pale aku iā ʻoe no ka lōʻihi loa e hiki ai i ka wai ke kahe.I ka wā ʻino, ʻoi aku ka hilinaʻi o kēia ma mua o nā lole hanu wai a me nā mea hana (e kū i ke kaomi hydrostatic kiʻekiʻe).
Inā mākou e hoʻohālikelike i nā ʻano lole hoʻoheheʻe wai ʻekolu, ʻoi aku ka like o nā lole pale wai me ka wai ʻole ma mua o nā lole pale wai, ʻaʻole like me nā mea hope, hiki iā lākou ke hoʻokuʻu i ka makū ʻoiai me ka mālama ʻole ʻia me ka hydrophobic.'O ia ho'i, 'o ke kū'ē i ka wai, 'o ia ka mana o ka lole e pale aku i ka wai.Ana 'ia ke degere o ka wai-kū'ai ma ka ho'ohana 'ana i ka hydrostatic pressure ho'ā'o, no laila, 'o ka 'ike loea, 'a'ole pa'a ka wai i ka lole wai (e 'ike 'a'ole 'oia'i'o mau ka 'oko'a).Pono nā lole pale ua hiki ke kū i ke kaomi hydrostatic o ka liʻiliʻi o 1500 mm kolamu wai.
Hana pinepine ʻia nā lole pale ua mai nā lole i ulana paʻa ʻia e ke kanaka e like me (ripstop) polyester a me ka nylon.ʻO nā lole ʻē aʻe i ulana ʻia e like me ka taffeta a me ka pulupulu hoʻi e hoʻohana maʻalahi ʻia no ka hana ʻana i nā lole pale wai a me nā mea hana.
