Installation/Set-Up Challenges for Fasteners, Fibre Washers

When using fasteners and fiber washers, some common installation or setup challenges may include:

1. Over-tightening: Applying too much force during installation can lead to damage, especially when dealing with fragile materials. This can cause the fiber washers to crack or deform, reducing their effectiveness.

2. Incorrect size selection: Choosing the wrong size of fastener or fiber washer can result in improper fit and performance issues. It is crucial to ensure that the fastener and washer sizes match the requirements of the application.

3. Inadequate torque control: Not applying the correct amount of torque can impact the effectiveness of the fasteners and fiber washers, leading to loosening or failure over time.

4. Material compatibility: Using incompatible materials can result in corrosion, galvanic reactions, or other issues that compromise the integrity of the fastening system.

5. Environmental factors: Exposure to harsh conditions such as extreme temperatures, moisture, chemicals, or UV radiation can affect the performance of fasteners and fiber washers over time.

By addressing these common challenges through proper selection, installation, and maintenance practices, you can ensure the effective and reliable use of fasteners and fiber washers in your application.
