Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard acrylic instead of polycarbonate for high-impact pneumatic applications.Always select polycarbonate for applications requiring superior impact resistance and shatter protection, especially in pneumatic systems where sudden pressure changes or impacts are possible.
Improper fastening leading to stress cracks or leaks.Utilize appropriate fasteners and avoid over-tightening. Consider using gaskets or sealant to distribute stress and ensure a proper seal, preventing premature failure.

Common Applications

  • Pneumatic control panel enclosures
  • Machine guarding for automated systems
  • Sight glasses for pneumatic cylinders and valves
  • Protective covers for pneumatic actuators

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid prolonged exposure to UV radiation without a UV-resistant coating, as it can degrade polycarbonate over time.
  • Ensure compatibility with specific chemicals used in the pneumatic system, as some solvents can attack polycarbonate.
