Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using incorrect cutting tools leading to jagged edges or material damage.Employ tools specifically designed for cutting brass sheeting, such as metal shears or abrasive saws, to achieve clean, precise cuts.
Failing to account for expansion and contraction in temperature-sensitive environments.Incorporate appropriate expansion joints or allowances during installation, especially in areas with significant temperature fluctuations.
