Installation Procedure

1. Ensure mating threads are clean and free of debris. 2. Hand-thread the screw into the receiving component to prevent cross-threading. 3. Tighten using an appropriate wrench or socket, applying torque incrementally to achieve the desired clamping force without over-stressing the polycarbonate material. Consult material compatibility charts for maximum allowable torque.

Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Over-tightening the polycarbonate screw, which can lead to cracking or stripping.Apply torque gradually and stop when the desired clamping force is achieved. Refer to engineering specifications for maximum recommended torque values for polycarbonate.
Using the wrong tool, potentially damaging the hex head.Utilize a properly sized socket or wrench that fits the 14mm hex head snugly to ensure even pressure distribution and prevent cam-out.
