Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard carbon steel fasteners which can lead to galvanic corrosion.Utilize 304 stainless steel or other compatible corrosion-resistant fasteners.
Inadequate cleaning after fabrication, leaving behind welding residues or debris.Thoroughly clean the fabricated components using non-abrasive methods to prevent localized corrosion.

Common Applications

  • Heat exchanger fabrication
  • Ductwork for HVAC systems
  • Storage tanks for process fluids

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Always wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) during fabrication and handling.
  • Avoid contact with materials that can cause pitting corrosion, such as chlorides, especially at elevated temperatures.
