Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard carbon steel cutting tools on stainless steel.Employ specialized carbide or high-speed steel cutting tools designed for stainless steel to prevent work hardening and maintain cut quality.
Inadequate lubrication during cutting.Utilize appropriate cutting fluids or lubricants to reduce heat buildup, extend tool life, and achieve a smoother cut.
