Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard carbon steel fasteners with 316 stainless steel, leading to galvanic corrosion.Always utilize compatible stainless steel fasteners (e.g., 316 grade) to prevent galvanic corrosion and maintain the integrity of the assembly.
Contaminating the surface with iron particles during cutting or grinding, creating rust sites.Employ dedicated tools and cleaning procedures to prevent ferrous contamination and maintain the passive oxide layer crucial for corrosion resistance.

Common Applications

  • Pressure vessel fabrication
  • Heat exchanger components
  • High-temperature piping systems

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Ensure proper ventilation during any cutting, grinding, or welding operations to avoid inhalation of metal fumes.
  • Handle with care to prevent scratches or damage that could compromise corrosion resistance.
