Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard carbon steel tools which can cause contamination and galvanic corrosion.Utilize dedicated stainless steel tools and implement thorough cleaning protocols to prevent cross-contamination.
Inadequate post-weld cleaning, leading to surface contamination and reduced corrosion resistance.Perform thorough passivation and pickling after welding to remove heat-tint and any surface contaminants.

Common Applications

  • Pressure Vessel Fabrication
  • Heat Exchanger Components
  • Chemical Processing Equipment

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid exposure to chloride-rich environments at elevated temperatures if not properly passivated.
  • Ensure proper ventilation and personal protective equipment when cutting or welding.
