Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard carbon steel cutting tools which can lead to contamination and reduced corrosion resistance.Employ tools specifically designed for stainless steel, such as carbide-tipped blades or abrasive cut-off wheels, to prevent contamination.
Inadequate edge finishing after cutting, potentially creating stress risers or rough surfaces.Deburr and smooth all cut edges using appropriate files or grinding tools to ensure a clean and safe finish.
