Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using incorrect cutting tools that can cause burrs or deformation, impacting dimensional accuracy.Employ sharp, high-quality cutting tools specifically designed for metal fabrication, and ensure proper feed rates are maintained.
Inadequate cleaning of the brass surface before assembly, leading to potential leaks or contamination.Utilize appropriate degreasers and cleaning solvents to ensure a pristine surface finish, free from oils, dirt, or cutting fluid residue.

Common Applications

  • Custom hydraulic fittings and adapters
  • Hydraulic valve components
  • Sealing surfaces and shims in hydraulic assemblies

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Always wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) when handling and fabricating brass stock.
  • Ensure proper ventilation during any machining or cutting operations involving brass to avoid inhaling metal dust.
