Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using incorrect cutting tools leading to burrs and uneven edges.Employ sharp, high-quality cutting tools specifically designed for aluminum, such as carbide-tipped blades or abrasive cut-off wheels, to ensure clean cuts.
Inadequate surface preparation before assembly or finishing.Thoroughly degrease and clean the aluminum surface using appropriate solvents to remove oils, dirt, and oxides for optimal adhesion and conductivity.
