Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard sheet metal tools not designed for brass.Employ cutting and bending tools specifically designed for working with brass to prevent damage and ensure clean cuts.
Overworking the material during bending or forming, leading to cracking.Perform bending operations slowly and with the appropriate radius to avoid overstressing the brass.

Common Applications
