Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using metal tools that can damage the nylon head.Utilize nylon or plastic-tipped tools to prevent scratching or deforming the hex head.
Over-tightening the screw, leading to thread stripping or head fracture.Tighten only until snug. For applications requiring specific torque values, consult material specifications and use a calibrated torque wrench for nylon.

Common Applications
