Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard carbon steel fasteners that will corrode and stain the stainless steel.Always use 304 or 316 stainless steel fasteners to maintain corrosion resistance and prevent galvanic corrosion.
Aggressive grinding or polishing that removes the passive oxide layer, leading to premature corrosion.Use dedicated stainless steel tools and polishing compounds, and always finish in the direction of the grain.

Common Applications

  • Custom fabricated chutes and hoppers
  • Work surfaces and countertops in food processing
