Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard carbon steel fasteners which will corrode and compromise the integrity of the 316 stainless steel component.Always use 316 stainless steel or other compatible high-grade corrosion-resistant fasteners.
Employing welding techniques that lead to excessive carbide precipitation, reducing the material's corrosion resistance.Utilize low-carbon (316L) stainless steel or employ proper welding procedures (e.g., TIG welding with appropriate filler material) to prevent sensitization.

Common Applications

  • Custom fabricated chutes and hoppers
  • Heavy-duty conveyor system components
  • Corrosion-resistant shelving and racking

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Handle with care to avoid sharp edges and potential deformation.
