Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard brass alloys not rated for hydraulic pressure.Always specify and verify that the brass used meets the required tensile strength and corrosion resistance standards for hydraulic applications.
Inadequate surface preparation after machining.Ensure all machined surfaces are properly deburred and cleaned to prevent flow restrictions or seal damage within the hydraulic system.

Common Applications

  • Hydraulic Manifold Blocks
  • Valve Bodies and Components
  • Hydraulic Fluid Connectors and Fittings

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Ensure proper ventilation during machining operations to manage dust and fumes.
  • Handle with care to avoid scratching or damaging critical surfaces.
