Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard drill bits causing cracking.Employ specialized polycarbonate drill bits or use a standard bit with a reduced feed rate and adequate cooling.
Excessive clamping pressure leading to stress fractures.Utilize appropriately sized washers and do not overtighten fasteners; allow for thermal expansion.

Common Applications

  • Electrical Enclosures
