Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using the sheet in highly corrosive environments without proper coating or material selection.Consult material compatibility charts or specify a more resistant alloy for aggressive chemical or saltwater applications.
Over-tightening fasteners, leading to localized stress concentrations and potential deformation of the sheet.Apply fasteners uniformly and to manufacturer-recommended torque specifications to maintain sheet integrity.

Common Applications

  • Industrial particulate filtration
  • Liquid and gas separation systems
  • Pre-filtration media support

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Handle with appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) to avoid sharp edges.
  • Ensure proper ventilation during fabrication or welding processes due to potential fume generation.
