Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard steel in corrosive hydraulic environments.Always specify 304 stainless steel or equivalent for hydraulic systems exposed to moisture, chemicals, or saltwater.
Improper welding techniques leading to carbide precipitation and reduced corrosion resistance.Employ low-heat input welding processes and post-weld annealing if necessary, following AWS 304 welding guidelines.

Common Applications

  • Hydraulic Manifold Blocks
  • Hydraulic Reservoir Fabrication
  • High-Pressure Hydraulic Tubing Connectors
