Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using un-deburred edges, which can nick or tear seals, leading to leaks.Thoroughly deburr all cut edges with a deburring tool or file to create a smooth, safe surface.
Improper cleaning of the sheet surface before machining, leading to tool wear and poor surface finish.Clean the sheet thoroughly with an appropriate degreaser and lint-free cloths before any machining operations.

Common Applications

  • Pneumatic cylinder construction
  • Air valve manifold bases
  • Pneumatic control panel fabrication

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Always wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE), including safety glasses and gloves, when handling and fabricating this material.
