Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard carbon steel for lubricating components exposed to corrosive fluids.Always select 316 stainless steel for its superior corrosion resistance in such environments.
Improper edge preparation after cutting, leading to stress risers.Thoroughly deburr all cut edges to a smooth, consistent finish.

Common Applications

  • Custom fabricated bearing components
  • Lubricant delivery system parts
  • Protective shrouds for lubrication points in corrosive environments

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid abrasive cleaning methods that can scratch the surface and compromise corrosion resistance.
  • Ensure proper welding procedures are followed to maintain the integrity of the stainless steel's passive layer.
