Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard carbon steel cutting tools without proper lubrication, leading to tool wear and poor cut quality.Employ high-speed steel or carbide cutting tools specifically designed for stainless steel, coupled with adequate coolant or lubricant.
Attempting to bend the sheet with insufficient force or improper die radius, causing cracking or deformation.Calculate bend allowances and select appropriate tooling with sufficient tonnage and the correct die radius for the 0.828" thickness.

Common Applications

  • Heavy-duty structural components
  • Marine and offshore equipment fabrication
  • Chemical processing equipment linings

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Handle with care due to sharp edges after cutting.
  • Wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) during all fabrication processes.
