Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard fasteners not rated for the load capacity.Always utilize high-strength, load-rated fasteners appropriate for the intended application and the material's shear strength.
Overlooking the material's fatigue limits in dynamic loading.Consult engineering specifications and perform load calculations considering potential fatigue cycles for prolonged or repetitive lifting operations.

Common Applications

  • Structural components for hoists and cranes
  • Custom lifting fixtures and jigs
  • Reinforcement plates for pulley systems

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Maximum load capacity must be determined by a qualified engineer based on the specific application and fastening method.
  • Avoid abrasive cleaning methods that could compromise the corrosion-resistant surface.
