Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard cutting tools not designed for thick metal.Employ industrial-grade metal shears or abrasive saws suitable for brass of this thickness to ensure clean cuts and prevent tool damage.
Ignoring material expansion and contraction due to temperature.Account for thermal expansion/contraction in design, especially in applications involving significant temperature fluctuations, by incorporating appropriate clearance or fastening methods.
