Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard carbon steel in corrosive environments.Always specify 316 stainless steel for applications exposed to moisture, chemicals, or salt spray to prevent premature corrosion and failure.
Improper cutting techniques causing burrs or stress risers.Employ sharp, appropriate cutting tools and always deburr edges thoroughly after cutting to maintain material integrity and prevent leaks.

Common Applications

  • Pneumatic cylinder components
  • Air valve bodies
  • Custom pneumatic fittings

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Ensure proper grounding when machining to prevent static discharge.
  • Handle with care to avoid surface scratching, which can compromise corrosion resistance.
