Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using incorrect fasteners that can cause galvanic corrosion with brass.Employ stainless steel or brass fasteners to prevent dissimilar metal corrosion and ensure long-term integrity.
Applying excessive force during cutting or drilling, leading to material deformation or cracking.Utilize appropriate cutting tools and techniques with proper lubrication and controlled feed rates to maintain material integrity.

Common Applications

  • Custom fabrication of chutes and hoppers
  • Wear plates and liners for conveyor systems
  • Reinforcement for heavy-duty shelving and platforms

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Always wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE), including safety glasses and gloves, when handling and fabricating brass.
  • Ensure proper ventilation during cutting, grinding, or welding operations to avoid inhalation of metal fumes.
