Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using incorrect cutting tools leading to burrs or deformation.Employ precision industrial cutting equipment designed for metal sheeting, such as abrasive saws or waterjet cutters, and deburr edges thoroughly.
Inadequate surface preparation for sealing.Thoroughly clean and flatten all mating surfaces to achieve a leak-proof seal, especially in high-pressure applications.
