Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard drill bits which can cause cracking.Employ specialized polycarbonate drill bits or high-speed steel bits with a reduced point angle and proper cooling.
Over-tightening fasteners, leading to stress cracks.Use clearance holes and do not overtighten fasteners; consider using washers to distribute pressure.

Common Applications
