Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using lower-grade stainless steel in corrosive hydraulic fluids.Always specify 316 stainless steel or higher for applications involving chlorides or aggressive chemicals to prevent premature failure.
Inadequate surface preparation before welding or assembly.Thoroughly degrease and remove any surface contaminants prior to any fabrication steps to ensure weld integrity and prevent galvanic corrosion.

Common Applications

  • Hydraulic manifold blocks
  • Pressure vessel components
  • Corrosion-resistant hydraulic tubing and fittings

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Machining may generate heat; use appropriate cooling lubricants to maintain material properties.
  • Avoid contact with dissimilar metals in corrosive environments to prevent galvanic corrosion.
