Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard cutting tools not designed for thick stainless steel.Employ high-speed steel (HSS) or carbide-tipped cutting tools specifically rated for cutting stainless steel of this gauge.
Inadequate lubrication during machining, leading to tool wear and heat buildup.Utilize a heavy-duty cutting fluid or coolant designed for stainless steel to maintain optimal temperature and extend tool life.
