Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard cutting tools not designed for aluminum alloys.Employ specialized tooling with appropriate rake angles and cooling lubricants to ensure clean cuts and prevent material adhesion.
Failing to properly deburr edges after cutting.Thoroughly deburr all cut edges using a deburring tool to remove sharp edges and potential stress risers.

Common Applications

  • Components for oil and grease distribution systems
  • Bearings and bushings in low-friction environments
  • Guides and slides in automated lubrication machinery

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Handle with care to avoid sharp edges.
  • Ensure proper ventilation when machining to dissipate aluminum dust.
