Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using incorrect cutting tools, leading to burring or deformation.Employ carbide-tipped or diamond-coated cutting tools specifically designed for stainless steel to ensure clean cuts and minimize material stress.
Failing to account for thermal expansion in high-temperature hydraulic systems.Incorporate appropriate expansion joints or flexible connections in the fabricated components to manage thermal movement and prevent system stress.
