Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard steel cutting tools without proper adjustments for aluminum.Employ specialized carbide-tipped blades or plasma cutters designed for aluminum to prevent heat buildup, chipping, and premature tool wear.
Inadequate surface preparation before welding or joining.Thoroughly clean the aluminum surface with a stainless steel brush and appropriate degreaser to remove oxides and contaminants, ensuring a strong and defect-free weld.
