Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using inadequate cutting tools, leading to tearing or chipping of the brass.Utilize sharp, specifically designed cutting tools for brass, such as carbide-tipped blades or end mills, and maintain appropriate feed rates.
Failing to deburr cut edges, potentially causing seal leaks or component damage in pneumatic systems.Always perform thorough deburring of all cut edges using a file, deburring tool, or chamfering bit to create a smooth, hazard-free surface.

Common Applications

  • Pneumatic Manifolds
