Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard cutting tools not rated for the sheet's thickness.Employ heavy-duty cutting tools specifically designed for thick carbon steel to prevent tool damage and ensure clean cuts.
Neglecting proper surface preparation before welding or coating.Thoroughly degrease and remove any mill scale or rust from the surface to ensure optimal adhesion and weld integrity.

Common Applications
