Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard cutting tools not designed for thick brass.Employ industrial-grade metal cutting saws or shears specifically rated for 0.548" thick brass to prevent blade damage and ensure clean cuts.
Neglecting proper deburring after cutting.Thoroughly deburr all cut edges with a file or deburring tool to remove sharp fragments and ensure a safe, finished edge.

Common Applications

  • Custom fabricated pipe fittings and connectors
