Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using excessive force during tightening, which can damage the nylon material.Utilize calibrated torque wrenches and adhere to specified torque values to prevent over-stressing the nylon.
Failing to use appropriate washers, leading to uneven pressure distribution.Always use flat washers under the nuts to distribute the clamping force evenly across the U-bolt legs and the supporting surface.
