Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard carbon steel fasteners in contact with 304 stainless steel without isolation.Employ 304 or 316 stainless steel fasteners and hardware to prevent galvanic corrosion.
Allowing contamination from carbon steel tools or work surfaces during fabrication.Utilize dedicated stainless steel tools and clean, segregated work areas to maintain the integrity of the stainless steel surface.

Common Applications
