Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard cutting tools without coolant on thicker aluminum.Employ cutting fluids or coolants to prevent tool overheating and ensure clean cuts, especially on thicker stock.
Neglecting to deburr edges after cutting.Thoroughly deburr all cut edges to remove sharp protrusions, improving safety and subsequent fabrication processes.

Common Applications

  • Structural components
  • Aircraft and automotive parts
  • Marine hardware and frameworks

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Handle with care to avoid sharp edges.
  • Ensure proper ventilation when cutting or welding Aluminum 6061.
