| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Over-tightening the nylon screw, leading to stripping or deformation of the threads. | Use a torque wrench set to the manufacturer's recommended torque specifications for nylon fasteners, or tighten until snug and then apply a small additional turn. |
| Using in applications exceeding the material's temperature or chemical resistance limits. | Verify the operating temperature and chemical compatibility of nylon against the specific environmental conditions of the application before installation. |
