Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using incorrect cutting tools, leading to burrs and uneven edges.Utilize high-quality metal cutting tools such as abrasive cut-off wheels or plasma cutters designed for sheet metal.
Overstressing the material during bending, causing cracking or deformation.Adhere to recommended bend radii for 0.065" carbon steel to prevent material failure.

Common Applications
