Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard carbon steel fasteners which can lead to galvanic corrosion.Always utilize fasteners made from 316 stainless steel or a compatible high-grade alloy to prevent dissimilar metal corrosion.
Inadequate edge preparation leading to stress concentrations.Smooth and deburr all cut edges to mitigate potential stress risers and ensure uniform stress distribution across the installed sheet.

Common Applications

  • Marine components and structural elements
  • Chemical processing equipment and tanks
  • Pharmaceutical manufacturing surfaces and vessels

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Ensure proper personal protective equipment (PPE) is used during cutting and handling operations.
  • Avoid prolonged contact with dissimilar metals, especially at elevated temperatures, to prevent galvanic corrosion.
