Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using incompatible cleaning agents that can cause surface etching or discoloration.Always consult the material data sheet for recommended cleaning agents. Mild detergents and water are typically safe, followed by thorough rinsing and drying.
Exceeding the recommended bending or forming radii, leading to material stress fractures or compromising dimensional integrity.Adhere to established minimum bend radii guidelines for 0.616" thick 304 stainless steel to prevent material failure and maintain structural integrity.

Common Applications

  • Precision measurement fixtures
  • Inspection surface plates
  • Industrial fabrication substrates
