Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard brass alloys not suited for hydraulic pressure.Always specify and utilize brass alloys specifically rated for high-pressure hydraulic applications, such as UNS C36000 or equivalent.
Improper machining leading to stress concentrations or surface imperfections.Employ precise machining techniques with appropriate tooling and speeds to achieve smooth surface finishes and avoid introducing stress risers.

Common Applications

  • Hydraulic Manifold Blocks
  • Hydraulic Valve Bodies
  • Pressure Vessels for Hydraulic Systems

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Always wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) when machining or handling brass stock.
  • Ensure compatibility of the brass alloy with all hydraulic fluids and operating temperatures to prevent premature degradation.
