Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using lower-grade stainless steel not suited for corrosive environments.Always select 316 stainless steel for applications involving lubricants and potential exposure to corrosive agents.
Inadequate surface preparation leading to friction or premature wear.Thoroughly clean and deburr all edges and surfaces of the sheet prior to installation and lubrication.

Common Applications

  • Sliding surfaces in conveyor systems
  • Components within pump housings exposed to lubricants
  • Bearings and bushings in high-moisture environments

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Handle with care to avoid sharp edges.
  • Ensure compatibility of lubricants with 316 stainless steel to prevent galvanic corrosion.
