Brass fittings are hollow, thin-walled structures. Their chemical composition may be similar to that of ordinary brass, but their actual machining behavior is affected by factors such as:
• Wall thickness
• Hollow structure
• Workpiece rigidity
• Thread position
Thread machining characteristics
Common chips:
• Long, coiled chips
Potential causes:
• Short chips remaining at the thread ends
• Difficulty in chip removal
• Abnormal thread end quality
Therefore, thin-walled brass fittings cannot be classified simply as "brass"; the workpiece structure and thread position must also be considered in the tool design.
