Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using incorrect blade for sawing stainless steel.Employ a high-quality bi-metal or carbide-tipped blade specifically designed for cutting stainless steel to prevent blade damage and ensure clean cuts.
Insufficient clamping of the sheet during cutting.Ensure the sheet is securely clamped at multiple points to prevent vibration and potential movement, which can lead to inaccurate cuts and safety hazards.

Common Applications

  • Custom fabrication of heavy-duty components
