Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using fasteners with dissimilar metals that can lead to galvanic corrosion.Employ fasteners made from compatible materials such as stainless steel (304 or 316) or aluminum alloys to prevent galvanic corrosion.
Over-tightening fasteners, which can deform the 0.418" thick aluminum sheet and compromise its structural integrity.Utilize a torque wrench set to the manufacturer's recommended specifications for the chosen fasteners and material thickness to avoid over-stressing the aluminum.

Common Applications
