Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using undersized or inappropriate fasteners.Always use fasteners (bolts, screws, rivets) that are specifically rated for the shear and tensile loads anticipated and are compatible with the thickness of the carbon steel sheet.
Failing to account for material expansion/contraction.In applications subject to significant temperature fluctuations, consider the coefficient of thermal expansion of carbon steel and incorporate expansion joints or flexible mounting if necessary.
