Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard carbon steel cutting tools which can lead to workpiece contamination and reduced corrosion resistance.Utilize dedicated stainless steel cutting tools made of carbide or high-speed steel, and ensure they are clean and free from rust or debris.
Applying excessive heat during cutting or welding, which can alter the material's microstructure and compromise its corrosion resistance.Employ controlled cutting speeds and appropriate cooling methods. For welding, use inert gas shielding (TIG or MIG) and minimize heat input.

Common Applications

  • Precision abrasive surface preparation
  • High-durability polishing substrates
