Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using fasteners that are too small or sharp, leading to stress cracking.Utilize appropriately sized fasteners with washers to distribute load and prevent localized pressure points.
Drilling holes too close to the edge of the sheet, increasing the risk of fracture.Maintain adequate edge distance when drilling holes, typically at least twice the hole diameter.

Common Applications
