Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using incorrect cutting tools for brass, leading to poor quality cuts or tool damage.Employ specialized metal cutting blades designed for brass or non-ferrous metals. Ensure blades are sharp and appropriate for the material thickness.
Failing to deburr edges after cutting, creating sharp hazards.Always use a deburring tool or a fine-grit file to smooth all cut edges thoroughly.

Common Applications

  • Electrical Contacts and Connectors
