Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using insufficient heat during brazing or soldering.Ensure adequate heat is applied to both the brass sheet and the joining filler material to achieve a strong, leak-free bond.
Not properly cleaning the surface before joining.Thoroughly clean the brass surface with a degreaser and abrasive pad to remove any oxides or contaminants that could compromise the joint integrity.
