Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard steel cutting tools without adjustments.Utilize specialized carbide or high-speed steel cutting tools designed for aluminum to prevent material tearing and ensure clean cuts.
Overheating the material during welding, leading to reduced mechanical properties.Employ proper welding techniques and heat management, such as TIG or MIG welding with appropriate filler materials, to maintain the alloy's integrity.
