Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard carbon steel cutting tools which can lead to contamination and reduced corrosion resistance.Utilize dedicated stainless steel cutting tools, free from carbon steel residues, and employ appropriate lubrication to prevent heat buildup and galling.
Improper handling leading to surface scratches or deformations.Handle the sheet with clean, gloved hands or suitable lifting equipment. Store on a flat, protected surface away from corrosive agents.

Common Applications

  • Custom fabrication of industrial components
