Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard cutting tools not designed for hardened stainless steel, leading to tool damage and poor cut quality.Employ carbide-tipped blades or specialized abrasive cutting discs designed for stainless steel.
Insufficient pre-cleaning of the surface before welding, resulting in weld contamination and reduced corrosion resistance.Thoroughly degrease and remove any surface contaminants using approved stainless steel cleaning agents before welding.
