Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard brass instead of lubricating grade for friction-sensitive applications.Always select lubricating grade brass for components where friction and wear are critical factors.
Inadequate surface preparation of mating parts.Thoroughly clean and deburr both the brass sheet and the mating surface before assembly to prevent premature wear.

Common Applications

  • Bearing surfaces
  • Bushings
  • Wear plates
  • Low-friction guides

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Not suitable for extreme high-temperature applications where lubrication properties degrade.
  • Ensure proper lubrication is maintained for optimal performance and lifespan.
