Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard cutting tools not designed for aluminum alloys.Utilize specialized carbide-tipped blades or waterjet cutting for clean, precise cuts and to prevent material overheating.
Improper handling leading to surface scratching or bending.Employ forklifts with padded forks, wear clean gloves, and support the sheet adequately during transport and positioning.

Common Applications

  • Structural framing and supports
  • Custom jigs and fixtures
