Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard cutting tools not rated for stainless steel, leading to dulling and poor cut quality.Employ high-speed steel (HSS) or carbide-tipped cutting tools specifically designed for stainless steel fabrication.
Insufficient lubrication during cutting or forming, causing excessive heat buildup and material deformation.Utilize appropriate cutting fluids or lubricants to dissipate heat and ensure smooth operation.
