Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard stainless steel in highly corrosive environments.Always specify 316 stainless steel for applications involving chlorides, acids, or high-temperature saline solutions.
Inadequate edge finishing after cutting.Thoroughly deburr all cut edges to prevent premature fatigue and stress concentration.

Common Applications

  • Pressure vessel liners
  • Heat exchanger components
  • Corrosive fluid containment

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid contact with dissimilar metals in highly corrosive environments to prevent galvanic corrosion.
  • Ensure proper ventilation when cutting or welding to avoid exposure to metal fumes.
