Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard carbon steel fasteners which can lead to galvanic corrosion.Utilize 316 stainless steel or compatible high-grade fasteners for all connections.
Improper surface preparation leading to contamination and compromised corrosion resistance.Thoroughly degrease and clean the sheet surface before any fabrication or assembly processes.

Common Applications

  • Pneumatic Manifold Fabrication
  • Corrosion-Resistant Enclosures
  • High-Pressure Pneumatic Components

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid aggressive grinding or welding techniques that can alter the passive oxide layer and compromise corrosion resistance.
  • Handle with care to prevent scratching or gouging which can initiate localized corrosion.
