Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard brass alloys for high-corrosion hydraulic fluids.Ensure the brass alloy selected is specifically rated for the intended hydraulic fluid and operating environment to prevent premature degradation.
Neglecting to account for thermal expansion in component design.Factor in the thermal expansion characteristics of brass during the design phase to prevent stress and potential failure in fluctuating temperature conditions.

Common Applications

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

⚠️ Engineering Warnings
