Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using incorrect cutting tools leading to material deformation or HAZ.Employ high-quality, sharp cutting tools and appropriate feed rates to maintain material integrity and prevent heat-affected zone issues.
Inadequate surface preparation before welding, resulting in weak joints.Thoroughly clean and degrease all mating surfaces to be welded to ensure optimal bond strength and prevent porosity.

Common Applications

  • Hydraulic Manifold Blocks
  • Hydraulic Pump Housings
  • Hydraulic Cylinder Barrels

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Handle with appropriate personal protective equipment to prevent cuts and abrasions.
  • Ensure proper ventilation during cutting and welding operations due to potential fumes.
