Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Attempting to cut without proper tooling designed for thick carbon steel.Utilize high-quality, heavy-duty cutting tools such as abrasive cut-off wheels, plasma cutters, or industrial band saws specifically rated for the material thickness and type.
Inadequate edge preparation before welding, leading to weak or incomplete fusion.Properly bevel edges to the recommended angle for the welding process being used. Ensure all surfaces are thoroughly cleaned of rust, mill scale, and contaminants before welding.
