Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard cutting speeds for steel on brass.Employ slower cutting speeds and appropriate lubricants when machining brass to prevent tool overheating and ensure a clean cut.
Failing to deburr machined edges.Thoroughly deburr all cut edges and internal passages after machining to prevent loose particles from entering the hydraulic circuit.
