Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard carbon steel for critical lubrication surfaces without proper surface treatment.Ensure the sheet is specifically designated for lubricating applications or apply appropriate surface treatments to reduce friction and wear.
Incorrectly measuring or cutting the sheet, leading to misalignment or improper fit in the assembly.Utilize precision measuring tools and cutting equipment, verifying dimensions against design specifications before fabrication.

Common Applications

  • Custom bearing components
  • Low-friction sliding surfaces
  • Lubricant reservoirs and distributors

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) during handling and fabrication.
  • Ensure proper ventilation when cutting or welding carbon steel to avoid inhalation of fumes.
