Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard carbon steel for high-pressure hydraulic applications.Always specify a grade of carbon steel with proven performance and adequate tensile strength for the intended hydraulic pressure range.
Inadequate deburring of cut edges.Thoroughly deburr all cut and machined edges to prevent particulate contamination within the hydraulic system, which can lead to component failure.

Common Applications

  • Hydraulic Manifold Blocks
  • Hydraulic Cylinder Components
  • High-Pressure Hydraulic Housings

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Ensure proper safety precautions are taken when handling and machining heavy gauge steel.
  • Carbon steel is susceptible to rust; implement appropriate corrosion protection measures during fabrication and operation.
