Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using incorrect cutting tools for the sheet thickness, leading to burrs or distortion.Employ cutting tools (e.g., shears, plasma cutters) specifically rated for 0.047" carbon steel to ensure clean, precise cuts.
Inadequate surface preparation before welding, resulting in weak or porous welds.Thoroughly clean the weld area, removing all mill scale, oil, and contaminants prior to welding to achieve optimal joint strength.

Common Applications
