Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using undersized or thin stock for high-pressure pneumatic systems.Always select stock material thickness that exceeds the maximum anticipated operating pressure and safety factors for the intended application.
Failing to properly deburr cut edges, leading to potential leaks or component damage.Thoroughly deburr all edges after cutting to ensure a smooth, clean surface that will seal effectively.

Common Applications

  • Pneumatic Manifold Blocks
  • Custom Valve Bodies
  • High-Pressure Fittings
  • Pneumatic Control Systems Components

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Always wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) when handling and fabricating brass stock.
  • Ensure proper ventilation when cutting or machining brass to avoid inhalation of fine particles.
