Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard steel cutting tools which can lead to excessive wear and poor cut quality.Employ carbide-tipped or specialized brass cutting blades for optimal results and tool longevity.
Inadequate surface preparation for electrical connections, resulting in poor conductivity.Thoroughly clean contact surfaces with a non-abrasive cleaner to remove any oxidation or contaminants before making connections.

Common Applications
