Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using incorrect cutting tools leading to burrs and inaccurate dimensions.Employ precision cutting tools such as a metal shear, bandsaw with appropriate blade, or laser cutter. Always deburr cut edges thoroughly.
Inadequate surface preparation before welding or bonding, compromising joint integrity.Thoroughly clean the aluminum surface with a degreaser and a non-abrasive pad to remove oxides and contaminants before any welding or adhesive application.

Common Applications

  • Aerospace components and structures
  • Automotive frames and body panels
  • Marine hardware and fittings
