Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard steel cutting tools without proper setup, leading to poor edge quality.Employ carbide-tipped or high-speed steel tooling specifically designed for non-ferrous metals like brass. Adjust feed rates and speeds appropriately.
Inadequate deburring after cutting, leaving sharp edges that can compromise sealing surfaces.Thoroughly deburr all cut edges using a deburring tool or file, ensuring a smooth and consistent profile.

Common Applications

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

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Always wear appropriate safety glasses and gloves when handling and machining brass.
  • Ensure proper ventilation when machining brass to avoid inhalation of fine particles.
