Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using a lower grade of stainless steel for corrosive environments.Always specify 304 or higher grade stainless steel for applications exposed to corrosive media.
Improper handling leading to surface scratches or contamination.Handle with clean gloves and store in a protective environment to maintain surface integrity.

Common Applications

  • Diaphragms for pressure regulators
  • Seals and gaskets for high-temperature valves
  • Components for heat exchangers and thermal control units

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Ensure proper passivation after fabrication to maximize corrosion resistance.
  • Avoid prolonged exposure to chloride-rich environments without adequate mitigation strategies.
