Philadelphia, PA -- (SBWIRE) -- 09/18/2020 -- Wickwire Warehouse Inc. continues to provide high-quality materials for companies in need of baling wire, stainless steel manufacturing material, and more this fall. With years of experience, the Wickwire Warehouse Inc. teams can advise customers on issues as diverse as the proper gauge to use and how to avoid common mistakes individuals make while working with stainless steel. These mistakes can include improperly cleaning the stainless steel, contaminating the metal, and failing to follow proper safety procedures.
Failing to properly clean stainless steel before subjecting it to manufacturing processes can be dangerous to the individual worker and the final product's quality. When a worker fails to clean the stainless steel with the proper abrasive, they often leave oils, dust, and other material on the steel that can catch fire when they subject it to welding or other heating processes. If it fails to catch fire, contaminates can still create inconsistent heating in the metal, making the final product much less durable than it needs to be.
Stainless steel is often used because it can resist corrosion, but if a worker attempts to weld stainless steel wire while there are particles of iron or other metals on the surface, it can create an alloy that is more likely to oxidize as time goes on. Stainless steel's formula needs to remain pure if it is going to withstand the extremes it is known for, and something as simple as using the wrong abrasive to clean it before welding can create these alloys.
Finally, failing to follow proper safety procedures creates a dangerous environment for workers working with stainless steel. This kind of mistake occurs frequently, but it can easily be avoided by ensuring adequate training is given about the best way to work with stainless steel. Further, there should be strict enforcement of these procedures to ensure optimal compliance.
