Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using a lower grade of stainless steel not rated for the specific corrosive environment.Always verify the material grade's chemical resistance against the anticipated media exposure in your pneumatic system.
Inadequate support structure leading to deflection or stress concentrations.Design the supporting framework to adequately distribute load and prevent excessive bending or deformation of the sheet.
