Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using undersized or incorrect fasteners/welds for the load capacity.Always consult load charts and engineering calculations to select fasteners and welding procedures that exceed the maximum anticipated load by a significant safety factor.
Ignoring the specific corrosive elements present in the operating environment.While 316 stainless steel is highly resistant, confirm its suitability for specific chemical exposures and concentrations to prevent premature degradation.

Common Applications

  • Custom lifting lugs and eyes
  • Reinforcement plates for structural components
  • Fabrication of custom rigging hardware

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Always adhere to proper lifting and rigging safety standards.
  • Ensure all fabricated components are inspected and certified by a qualified engineer before use under load.
