Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using incorrect cutting tools leading to edge deformation or work hardening.Employ high-speed steel or carbide cutting tools specifically designed for stainless steel, utilizing adequate coolant and appropriate feed rates.
Inadequate surface preparation leading to poor adhesion or premature corrosion.Thoroughly degrease and mechanically clean the surface before installation, ensuring it is free from any residual oils, dirt, or cleaning agents.

Common Applications

  • Pressure vessel fabrication
  • Heat exchanger components
  • Chemical processing equipment

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid contact with dissimilar metals that could lead to galvanic corrosion.
  • Handle with care to prevent scratching or damage to the surface, which can compromise corrosion resistance.
