Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using thinner gauge material for high-pressure hydraulic applications.Always select material thickness that meets or exceeds the calculated pressure and load requirements for the specific hydraulic system.
Inadequate surface preparation before welding or assembly.Thoroughly clean all surfaces to be joined, removing any mill scale, rust, oil, or debris to ensure strong, defect-free welds.

Common Applications

  • Hydraulic manifold fabrication
