Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using incorrect cutting tools, leading to rough edges or material deformation.Employ sharp, dedicated cutting tools designed for metal sheeting, such as metal shears or an abrasive cut-off wheel.
Inadequate surface preparation before joining, resulting in weak or leaky connections.Thoroughly clean and degrease the brass surfaces to be joined, ensuring a clean substrate for optimal adhesion or weld integrity.

Common Applications

  • Custom fabricated pipe fittings and connectors
