Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Improper cutting leading to edge burrs.Utilize a high-quality metal cutting saw or abrasive chop saw with a fine-tooth blade and proper lubrication to minimize burrs and ensure clean edges.
Inadequate surface preparation before installation.Thoroughly degrease and clean both the steel sheet and the mating surface to remove any oils, dirt, or contaminants that could impede proper function or lubrication.

Common Applications

  • Components for industrial lubrication systems
  • Wear plates and guides in machinery
  • Bearing housings and support structures

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Handle with appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) including gloves and eye protection due to sharp edges.
  • Ensure proper ventilation during any cutting or grinding operations to avoid inhalation of metal dust.
