Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using a non-marine grade or lower-quality brass alloy.Always specify and utilize a brass alloy suitable for the specific hydraulic fluid and operating environment to prevent premature corrosion and material degradation.
Inadequate deburring of cut edges.Thoroughly deburr all edges after cutting to prevent the introduction of particulate matter into the hydraulic system, which can cause blockages and damage.

Common Applications

  • Hydraulic manifold fabrication
  • Custom hydraulic fittings and connectors
  • Valve component manufacturing

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Ensure compatibility of brass alloy with all hydraulic fluids and operating temperatures.
  • Proper machining practices are essential to maintain material integrity and prevent contamination.
