Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using incorrect cutting tools, leading to burrs and inaccurate dimensions.Utilize carbide-tipped saw blades or abrasive cut-off wheels specifically designed for aluminum to ensure clean, precise cuts.
Failing to account for thermal expansion during fabrication, impacting final assembly fit.Allow for thermal expansion in design calculations and fabrication processes, especially in environments with significant temperature fluctuations.

Common Applications
