Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Over-tightening fasteners, leading to stress cracking.Use washers and tighten fasteners incrementally to distribute load and avoid over-compression.
Using abrasive cleaning agents that can scratch the surface.Clean with a mild soap and water solution, followed by a soft, lint-free cloth.

Common Applications

  • Low-friction wear strips
  • Guide rails for material handling
  • Custom bushings and bearings

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid prolonged exposure to UV radiation without appropriate coatings, as it can degrade material properties.
  • Do not use in environments with aggressive solvents that may cause crazing or degradation.
