Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using lower-grade stainless steel in corrosive hydraulic environments.Always specify 316 stainless steel for its enhanced molybdenum content, offering superior protection against chloride-induced corrosion, particularly in saltwater or chemical processing applications.
Inadequate surface preparation before integration into the hydraulic system.Thoroughly degrease and ensure the absence of debris on all surfaces of the 316 stainless steel sheet to prevent contamination and ensure a proper seal within the hydraulic circuit.

Common Applications

  • Hydraulic manifold blocks
  • Pressure vessels and accumulator shells
  • Corrosion-resistant hydraulic piping and fittings

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Always consult relevant industry standards and engineering drawings for precise application and fabrication guidelines.
  • When welding 316 stainless steel, use appropriate filler materials and procedures to maintain corrosion resistance.
