Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using inadequate cutting tools for the material thickness.Employ high-speed steel (HSS) or carbide-tipped cutting tools specifically designed for cutting carbon steel of this gauge to prevent tool damage and ensure clean cuts.
Failing to account for thermal expansion during welding or heating processes.Implement proper preheating and interpass temperature control techniques, along with appropriate joint design, to mitigate stress and distortion caused by thermal expansion.
