Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard cutting tools not designed for plastics, leading to chipping or melting.Employ specialized plastic cutting blades or router bits, ensuring proper feed rates and cooling to prevent material damage.
Over-tightening fasteners during assembly, causing localized stress and potential cracking.Utilize properly sized clearance holes and avoid excessive torque when fastening. Consider using washers to distribute pressure.

Common Applications
