Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using undersized fasteners for the sheet's thickness and intended load.Select fasteners with a shear strength and diameter commensurate with the calculated loads and the 0.673" thickness of the aluminum sheet.
Inadequate surface preparation leading to poor adhesion or premature corrosion at connection points.Thoroughly degrease and abrade the contact surfaces before fastening to promote optimal mechanical interlocking and corrosion resistance.

Common Applications

  • Industrial framework and structural supports
  • Custom bracing for heavy machinery
