Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using the wrong type of lubricant during machining, leading to tool wear or poor surface finish.Employ a high-quality cutting fluid specifically designed for brass machining to ensure optimal performance and finish.
Over-tightening fasteners, which can cause deformation or cracking of the brass sheet.Always adhere to the recommended torque specifications for all fasteners to prevent material stress.

Common Applications

  • Custom hydraulic manifold blocks
  • Hydraulic valve bodies and plates
  • Hydraulic fluid reservoirs and containment

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Ensure compatibility of brass alloy with specific hydraulic fluid being used to prevent premature corrosion.
  • Avoid abrasive cleaning methods that could damage the surface finish and compromise sealing integrity.
