Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard brass for high-friction applications.Select lubricating grade brass for its inherent self-lubricating properties to prevent premature wear and seizing.
Inadequate surface preparation before installation.Thoroughly clean and deburr all mating surfaces to ensure optimal contact and prevent premature wear.

Common Applications

  • Bushing and Bearing Components
  • Wear Plates and Strips
  • Thrust Washers

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Always wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) when handling and fabricating metal sheets.
  • Ensure proper ventilation when machining or working with brass alloys to avoid inhalation of dust or fumes.
