Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard carbon steel fasteners with 304 stainless steel components.Always use stainless steel grade 304 or higher fasteners to prevent galvanic corrosion and maintain material integrity.
Improper cleaning leading to embedded contaminants.Thoroughly clean the sheet with a suitable degreaser and rinse with deionized water to remove any manufacturing oils or debris before fabrication.

Common Applications

  • Custom pneumatic control panels
  • Enclosures for pneumatic cylinders and valves
  • Housings for air preparation units

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid using abrasive cleaning pads or harsh chemicals that can scratch or damage the stainless steel surface.
  • Ensure proper ventilation during cutting and grinding operations to prevent the inhalation of metal particulates.
