Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using incorrect fasteners that may cause galvanic corrosion with aluminum.Utilize stainless steel or aluminum fasteners specifically designed for use with 6061 aluminum to prevent corrosion.
Insufficient allowance for thermal expansion in enclosed systems.Incorporate expansion joints or flexible connections in designs to accommodate temperature-induced dimensional changes.

Common Applications

  • Heat Exchanger Fabrication
  • HVAC Ductwork Components
  • Structural Supports for Cooling Systems

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid prolonged contact with dissimilar metals in corrosive environments to prevent galvanic corrosion.
  • Ensure proper ventilation when cutting or grinding aluminum to avoid inhalation of fine particles.
