Detailed Engineering Specifications

Precision-manufactured to tight tolerances, this brass stock sheet (0.026" thickness, 39" length, 29" width) is engineered for demanding hydraulic applications. Composed primarily of copper and zinc, its alloy composition ensures excellent resistance to a wide range of hydraulic fluids and environmental factors, preventing premature degradation. The material's inherent malleability allows for intricate shaping and forming, crucial for creating leak-proof seals and custom fittings that maintain system integrity under pressure. Its non-sparking properties are also advantageous in potentially hazardous hydraulic environments. This sheet meets rigorous industry standards for hydraulic component fabrication, guaranteeing reliability and longevity in service.

Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using dull or incorrect cutting tools, leading to rough edges and potential leaks.Employ sharp, high-quality cutting tools specifically designed for brass to achieve clean, precise edges.
Inadequate surface preparation of mating components, resulting in poor sealing.Ensure all surfaces that will come into contact are meticulously cleaned and degreased before assembly.

Common Applications

  • Hydraulic seals and gaskets
  • Hydraulic fittings and connectors
  • Manifolds and valve components

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Always wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) when handling and machining brass.
  • Ensure proper ventilation during machining operations to mitigate exposure to airborne particles.
