Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard carbon steel in corrosive hydraulic applications.Always specify 316 stainless steel for its inherent resistance to corrosion and pitting, especially in environments with chlorides or aggressive chemicals.
Inadequate tolerance control during machining leading to leaks.Maintain tight machining tolerances as specified in hydraulic design standards to ensure proper sealing and prevent fluid loss.

Common Applications

  • Hydraulic Manifold Blocks
  • High-Pressure Valve Bodies
  • Pump Component Fabrication
  • Corrosive Fluid Containment

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Ensure proper passivation after fabrication to maximize corrosion resistance.
