What might cause damage to Omega CWT rails during construction?

Overtightening of rail brackets can lead to significant stress on Omega CWT rails during construction. When rails are secured too tightly, it can cause deformation and bending of the rail material due to excessive forces applied at the connection points. This can lead to cracking or permanent damage to the rail, affecting its structural integrity. Each rail is designed to withstand certain loads and stresses, and surpassing these limits through overtightening can compromise performance and safety.

Proper installation practices are crucial to ensure that rails are fastened securely without exceeding the material’s capacity. Thus, understanding and adhering to recommended torque specifications for rail brackets is vital in preventing damage during the construction process, ensuring that the rails maintain their designed functionality and do not lead to failure in service.
