Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using undersized fasteners for the sheet thickness.Select fasteners with a tensile strength and diameter appropriate for the 0.961" thickness to ensure secure attachment and load-bearing capacity.
Not considering environmental exposure during fabrication.While 6061 is corrosion-resistant, consider protective coatings or finishes if the application involves prolonged exposure to highly corrosive substances.
