Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using incorrect cutting tools leading to burring or deformation.Employ sharp, specialized metal cutting blades designed for aluminum to ensure clean cuts and prevent material damage.
Inadequate cleaning of surfaces prior to joining.Thoroughly clean all surfaces with a degreaser and wire brush to remove oxides and contaminants, ensuring optimal weld or bond integrity.

Common Applications

  • Heat Exchanger Fins
