Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard carbon steel cutting tools which can induce rust.Always use dedicated stainless steel cutting blades or tools to prevent contamination and galvanic corrosion.
Inadequate post-cutting cleaning leading to surface oxidation.Thoroughly degrease and pickle the cut edges to restore passivation and prevent premature corrosion.

Common Applications

  • Custom fabricated lifting lugs
  • Heavy-duty pulling plates
  • Marine rigging components

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Always wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) including safety glasses, gloves, and hearing protection when cutting or fabricating.
  • Ensure proper ventilation during cutting and welding operations to mitigate the risk of fume inhalation.
