Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard cutting tools not designed for brass, leading to uneven edges and potential material stress.Employ sharp, carbide-tipped cutting tools specifically designed for machining brass to achieve clean cuts and maintain material integrity.
Neglecting to deburr cut edges, resulting in burrs that can interfere with sealing surfaces and cause leaks.Always meticulously deburr all cut edges with a deburring tool to ensure smooth, clean surfaces critical for pneumatic sealing.

Common Applications
