Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using incompatible sealants or lubricants that can degrade brass over time.Consult material compatibility charts and use hydraulic-grade sealants and lubricants specifically approved for brass.
Over-tightening fasteners, which can lead to deformation or cracking of the brass sheet.Employ torque wrenches and follow recommended torque values for the specific fasteners and application.

Common Applications

  • Hydraulic Manifold Blocks
  • Custom Hydraulic Fittings
  • Valve Bodies and Components

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Ensure proper ventilation when machining brass to avoid inhalation of dust.
