Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using inadequate fastening hardware that is not corrosion-resistant.Always utilize high-strength, stainless steel fasteners (e.g., A4/316 grade) to match the sheet's corrosion resistance and prevent galvanic corrosion.
Overlooking proper load distribution, leading to stress concentrations.Design the supporting structure to distribute loads evenly across the sheet's surface, avoiding point loading.

Common Applications

  • Reinforcement plates for lifting eyes and slings
  • Fabricated structural components in marine environments
  • Customizable backing plates for pulley systems

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Always adhere to relevant safety standards and load ratings for pulling and lifting equipment.
  • Ensure proper personal protective equipment (PPE) is used during handling and installation, including cut-resistant gloves and eye protection.
