Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using undersized fasteners for heavy-duty applications.Always select fasteners with a tensile strength and shear strength that exceed the anticipated load on the carbon steel sheet.
Inadequate edge preparation for welding.Properly bevel edges to a suitable angle (e.g., 30-45 degrees) to ensure full weld penetration and structural integrity.

Common Applications

  • Safety Barriers and Guards
