Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using incorrect fasteners that can cause galvanic corrosion with aluminum.Employ stainless steel (300 series) or compatible aluminum fasteners to prevent galvanic corrosion.
Inadequate surface preparation leading to poor adhesion or weld integrity.Thoroughly degrease and abrade the contact surfaces before bonding or welding to ensure optimal material joining.

Common Applications

  • Structural Framing
  • Aerospace Components
  • Marine Fabrication

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Handle with care to avoid surface scratches and dings that can compromise aesthetics and structural integrity.
  • When welding, ensure proper pre-cleaning and use of appropriate filler materials for alloy 6061 to maintain mechanical properties.
