Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using incorrect cutting tools, leading to burrs and compromised edge quality.Employ high-quality abrasive cut-off wheels or band saws specifically designed for stainless steel to achieve clean, smooth edges.
Failing to account for material expansion/contraction in extreme temperature environments.Incorporate appropriate clearance or expansion joints in the design to accommodate thermal movement of the stainless steel.
