Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard carbon steel cutting tools, leading to potential contamination and reduced corrosion resistance.Employ dedicated stainless steel cutting tools and maintain strict cleanliness protocols to prevent ferrous contamination.
Improper edge finishing, resulting in sharp burrs that can shed and compromise the filtered product.Thoroughly deburr all cut edges using files or specialized deburring tools, followed by inspection.

Common Applications

  • Custom filter media construction
  • Industrial strainer fabrication
  • Screening and sieving components

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Always wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) during fabrication and handling.
  • Handle with care to avoid scratching or damaging the surface, which could compromise corrosion resistance.
