Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard fasteners not designed for plastics.Utilize fasteners with oversized washers or grommets to distribute pressure and prevent localized stress.
Drilling holes too close to the edge.Maintain adequate edge distance when drilling holes, typically at least twice the hole diameter, to avoid material failure.
