Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Improper cleaning of mating surfaces prior to installation.Thoroughly degrease and dry all surfaces involved in the assembly to ensure optimal contact and prevent premature wear.
Using standard cutting tools not designed for brass alloys.Employ carbide-tipped or high-speed steel cutting tools with appropriate lubrication to prevent galling and ensure clean cuts.
