Detailed Engineering Specifications

Designed for demanding industrial environments, this brass stock sheet offers a material thickness of 0.055 inches, a generous length of 43 inches, and a width of 44 inches. The brass composition (specific alloy to be confirmed based on application requirements, typically UNS C26000 or C28000) provides excellent machinability, good corrosion resistance against common pneumatic fluids, and a reliable thermal conductivity. Its formability allows for intricate component fabrication, making it ideal for custom manifold blocks, valve components, and pneumatic fittings where precise tolerances and durability are paramount.

Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using incorrect cutting speeds leading to material deformation or tool wear.Consult machining data for brass alloys and select appropriate cutting speeds and feeds for the chosen tooling.
Inadequate deburring after cutting or machining, leading to potential system contamination.Thoroughly deburr all cut edges and machined surfaces to ensure a clean finish and prevent particulate ingress into the pneumatic system.

Common Applications

  • Custom pneumatic manifold blocks
  • Valve body fabrication
  • Pneumatic fitting components

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Ensure proper ventilation when machining brass to avoid inhalation of fumes.
  • Handle with care to prevent nicks or scratches that could compromise subsequent operations or system integrity.
