| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using the wrong size wrench, leading to stripped hex heads. | Always use a correctly sized hex wrench or socket to ensure proper engagement and prevent damage to the screw head. |
| Over-tightening the screw, which can cause thread damage or material fatigue. | Tighten to the recommended torque for the application. Consult engineering specifications or use a torque wrench for critical assemblies. |
