Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard cutting tools not designed for plastic, leading to chipping or melting.Employ sharp, dedicated plastic cutting blades or CNC routing for precise and clean cuts.
Over-tightening fasteners, which can cause stress cracking or deformation in the Nylon.Use appropriate torque specifications for fasteners and consider using washers to distribute pressure.
