Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard fasteners not rated for the intended load capacity.Always specify and use fasteners (bolts, rivets) that are rated for the maximum anticipated load, considering safety factors.
Inadequate surface preparation before welding or bonding.Ensure the aluminum surface is free from oxidation, dirt, and grease using approved cleaning agents and mechanical abrasion prior to any joining process.

Common Applications

  • Custom lifting beams and frames
  • Spreader bars for overhead cranes
  • Reinforcement plates for rigging equipment

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Exceeding the stated load capacity can lead to catastrophic failure and severe injury.
  • Always perform thorough structural analysis and employ safety factors appropriate for the application.
