Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using the wrong grade of stainless steel for corrosive environments.Always specify 316 stainless steel for applications involving acids, chlorides, or other aggressive chemicals.
Improper edge finishing leading to particle shedding.Thoroughly deburr and clean all cut edges to prevent the release of metal particulates into the filtered stream.

Common Applications

  • Custom Filter Media Fabrication
  • Industrial Strainer Construction
  • Screening and Sieving Systems

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Always wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) when handling and cutting sheet metal.
  • Ensure compatibility of 316 stainless steel with the specific chemical or environmental conditions of the application.
