Why Are Steel Tools Not Suitable for Hazardous Areas?
Steel tools are widely used because of their excellent mechanical strength and affordability. However, in environments containing flammable gases, vapors, or liquids, traditional steel tools may create ignition risks.
During operations such as:
· Hammering
· Impacting
· Tightening bolts
· Tool dropping
Mechanical contact between metal surfaces may generate sparks.
In hazardous areas, even a small ignition source can potentially lead to serious consequences.
