Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard cutting tools not designed for plastic, leading to chipping or melting.Utilize carbide-tipped blades or laser cutting for clean, precise cuts without thermal degradation.
Over-tightening fasteners, causing stress concentrations and potential cracking.Employ washers and allow for thermal expansion by using slightly oversized holes for fasteners.

Common Applications

  • Low-friction wear strips
  • Guide rails for automated machinery
  • Bearing surfaces in conveyor systems

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid prolonged exposure to strong alkaline solutions.
