Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard carbon steel fasteners with 304 stainless steel.Always use stainless steel fasteners of compatible grade (e.g., 304 or 316) to prevent galvanic corrosion and ensure structural integrity.
Improper handling leading to surface scratches or contamination.Handle the sheet with clean gloves and avoid contact with carbon steel tools or surfaces. Use protective films if necessary during fabrication and installation.

Common Applications

  • Custom chute fabrication
  • Hopper liners and construction
  • Reinforcement plates for conveyor systems

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Always wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) such as safety glasses, gloves, and hearing protection when cutting, grinding, or welding.
  • Ensure proper ventilation when performing any fabrication processes to avoid inhalation of fumes or dust.
