Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard drill bits without proper clearance, leading to cracking.Utilize carbide-tipped drill bits designed for plastics and allow for adequate expansion clearance in drilled holes.
Over-tightening fasteners, causing stress points and potential failure.Employ washers and tighten fasteners until snug, but avoid excessive force. Consider expansion clips for long spans.
