| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using standard cutting tools not designed for thick stainless steel, leading to poor edge quality and tool damage. | Employ specialized cutting equipment and blades formulated for high-grade stainless steel to ensure clean cuts and extended tool life. |
| Neglecting to deburr edges after cutting, which can lead to premature failure in high-stress applications. | Always perform thorough deburring on all cut edges using files, deburring tools, or grinding wheels to achieve smooth, stress-free surfaces. |
