Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using incompatible thread sealant that can degrade brass.Always use sealants specifically rated for brass or copper alloys to prevent corrosion.
Over-tightening fittings, which can crack the pipe or fitting.Tighten fittings firmly but avoid excessive force; a secure seal is sufficient.

Common Applications

  • Hydraulic systems
  • Instrumentation tubing
  • Decorative structural components

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Not suitable for high-pressure steam applications without proper pressure rating verification.
  • Avoid contact with strong oxidizing acids, which can corrode brass.
