Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using incorrect cutting tools, leading to burrs or material deformation.Utilize specialized cutting tools for stainless steel, such as abrasive saws or plasma cutters, and deburr edges thoroughly.
Inadequate sealing of welded or fastened joints, compromising filtration efficiency.Employ proper welding techniques (e.g., TIG welding) or mechanical fastening methods to ensure airtight and watertight seals.

Common Applications

  • Industrial liquid filtration screens
  • Coarse particulate strainers
  • Support structures for fine filter media

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Always wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) when handling and cutting stainless steel.
  • Ensure proper ventilation during cutting and welding operations to avoid inhalation of fumes.
