Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Improper surface preparation leading to poor adhesion or premature wear.Always degrease and clean all surfaces before installation to ensure optimal contact and performance.
Over-tightening fasteners, which can cause localized stress or deformation of the sheet.Use torque specifications as per the design or a calibrated tightening method to avoid over-stressing the material.

Common Applications

  • Lubricant containment barriers
  • Wear-resistant guide surfaces
  • Customized fluid channels

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid exposure to harsh chemicals that may degrade aluminum alloy.
