Detailed Engineering Specifications

Precision-manufactured to tight tolerances, this 0.197" thick brass stock sheet offers superior dimensional accuracy for critical hydraulic components. Composed of a high-copper alloy (e.g., UNS C26000 cartridge brass or equivalent), it exhibits excellent machinability, good strength, and superior resistance to corrosion from hydraulic fluids and environmental factors. The 13" x 24" dimensions provide ample material for fabricating custom manifold blocks, valve bodies, fittings, and other specialized hydraulic parts where material integrity and precise geometry are paramount for leak-free operation and system efficiency.

Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard cutting tools not designed for brass, leading to poor edge quality and potential for material tearing.Employ sharp, high-speed steel or carbide cutting tools specifically designed for machining brass to achieve clean cuts and smooth finishes.
Insufficient deburring after machining, introducing metal particles into the hydraulic fluid, which can damage pumps and valves.Utilize hand files or deburring tools to meticulously remove all sharp edges and burrs from machined surfaces, ensuring a clean component.

Common Applications

  • Hydraulic Manifold Blocks
  • Hydraulic Valve Bodies
  • Custom Hydraulic Fittings
  • Hydraulic System Components

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Always wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE), including safety glasses and gloves, when handling and machining brass.
  • Ensure adequate ventilation when machining brass to avoid inhalation of airborne particles.
