Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using undersized or inappropriate fasteners.Always use fasteners rated for the anticipated load and compatible with aluminum to prevent galvanic corrosion.
Uneven load distribution during installation or operation.Ensure loads are applied centrally and evenly across the sheet's surface to avoid stress concentrations and premature failure.

Common Applications

  • Custom winch and hoist component fabrication
  • Reinforced structural elements for lifting jigs
  • Specialized rigging plates and anchor points

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Do not exceed the calculated load capacity based on engineering analysis.
  • Regularly inspect for signs of fatigue, corrosion, or deformation.
