Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using lower-grade stainless steel for corrosive environments.Always specify and use 316 stainless steel for applications involving chlorides, acids, or saline conditions to prevent premature corrosion and failure.
Improper cutting techniques leading to material stress or contamination.Employ sharp, specialized cutting tools (e.g., waterjet, laser, or abrasive saws) designed for stainless steel, and ensure proper lubrication and chip removal to maintain material integrity.

Common Applications

  • Fabrication of advanced filtration screens and elements
  • Construction of chemical processing equipment
  • Marine and offshore components requiring high corrosion resistance

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Handle with care to avoid sharp edges after cutting.
  • Ensure proper cleaning and passivation after fabrication to maintain optimal corrosion resistance.
