Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using thinner gauge steel for high-pressure pneumatic lines.Always select a steel thickness rated for the maximum operating pressure of the pneumatic system to prevent catastrophic failure.
Improper welding techniques leading to reduced corrosion resistance.Employ TIG welding with argon shielding and appropriate filler material for 304 stainless steel to maintain its passivation layer.

Common Applications

  • Custom pneumatic manifold fabrication
  • Corrosion-resistant pneumatic enclosures
  • High-pressure pneumatic component bases

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Ensure proper handling to avoid surface damage that could compromise corrosion resistance.
  • Always adhere to appropriate safety measures when cutting, grinding, or welding stainless steel.
