Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using a warped or uneven surface for critical measurements.Always verify the flatness and stability of the stock sheet before using it for inspection or calibration.
Exposing the aluminum sheet to corrosive environments without protection.While 6061 offers good corrosion resistance, prolonged exposure to harsh chemicals may require protective coatings or seals.

Common Applications

  • Precision Measurement Surface
  • Inspection Benchmarking
  • Calibration Standards
  • Jig and Fixture Base

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Handle with care to avoid scratching or denting the surface.
  • Avoid exposure to extreme temperatures that may affect dimensional stability.
