Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard steel cutting tools without proper coolantEmploy cutting tools designed for brass or use a cutting fluid to prevent overheating and tool wear.
Applying excessive force during bending or formingPerform bending and forming operations slowly and progressively, with intermediate annealing if necessary, to avoid cracking.

Common Applications

  • Fabrication of specialized hand tool components
  • Prototyping of tool prototypes
