Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using undersized fasteners for the sheet thickness and expected loads.Select fasteners that are appropriately sized and rated for the tensile and shear forces involved, considering the sheet's substantial thickness and the application's demands.
Overlooking potential galvanic corrosion when joining brass to dissimilar metals.Implement appropriate isolation measures, such as non-conductive washers or coatings, when connecting the brass sheet to metals like aluminum or steel in corrosive environments.

Common Applications

  • Structural bracing in marine vessels
  • Support frames for heavy machinery
