Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using undersized or incorrect fasteners.Always use fasteners specified in the design drawings or engineering recommendations that are rated for the expected load and compatible with aluminum.
Over-tightening fasteners, leading to material deformation.Utilize a torque wrench to apply the specified torque values. Avoid excessive force that could crush or warp the aluminum sheet.

Common Applications

  • Structural Bracing for Frameworks
