Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using improper thread sealant or tape.Utilize thread sealants or tapes specifically rated for aluminum alloys and the operating pressure/temperature of the system.
Overtightening threaded connections, leading to deformation or cracking.Adhere to torque specifications or use a calibrated wrench to avoid over-stressing the aluminum material and fittings.

Common Applications

  • Hydraulic and pneumatic systems
  • Structural supports in corrosive environments
  • Marine and offshore applications

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Ensure compatibility with all system fluids and operating temperatures.
  • Avoid exposing to extreme alkaline environments which can cause corrosion in aluminum alloys.
