Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard carbon steel fasteners with 316 stainless steel components.Always use compatible stainless steel fasteners (e.g., 316 grade) to prevent galvanic corrosion and ensure structural integrity.
Inadequate edge preparation after cutting.Ensure all cut edges are deburred and smooth to prevent stress concentrations and potential leakage points in hydraulic circuits.

Common Applications

  • Hydraulic manifold fabrication
  • Custom hydraulic cylinder components
  • Fluid power system housings

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Always wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) when handling and fabricating stainless steel sheets.
  • Ensure proper ventilation when performing cutting or welding operations on stainless steel.
