Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using incorrect cutting tools for the 0.473" thickness, leading to poor edge quality.Utilize heavy-duty plasma cutters, waterjet, or abrasive saws specifically rated for steel plate of this gauge.
Insufficient preheating during welding, resulting in cracking of the high-carbon content steel.Follow established welding procedures for medium-carbon steels, including appropriate preheating and post-weld heat treatment.

Common Applications

  • Hydraulic manifold construction
  • Heavy-duty cylinder bases and end caps
  • Structural supports for hydraulic power units
