Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using incorrect torque values, leading to under- or over-tightening.Consult engineering drawings or torque charts for the precise recommended torque based on the screw's grade and application.
Cross-threading the screw due to misalignment during installation.Always start threading by hand to ensure smooth engagement and proper alignment before applying any tools.

Common Applications

  • Structural steel framing and connections
  • Heavy machinery and equipment assembly
  • Automotive and transportation components

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Always wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE), including safety glasses, when handling and installing fasteners.
  • Ensure the material strength of the mating component (nut or tapped hole) is compatible with the load requirements of the M10 x 116mm cap screw.
