Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard carbon steel tools for cutting or forming, leading to potential contamination and reduced corrosion resistance.Employ dedicated stainless steel cutting and forming tools to maintain material integrity and prevent cross-contamination.
Inadequate surface preparation before welding, resulting in weakened joints and compromised corrosion resistance.Thoroughly clean and degrease all welding surfaces, and consider pickling or passivation after welding for optimal protection.

Common Applications
