Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard fasteners without proper washers or pre-drilled oversized holes, leading to stress concentration and cracking.Utilize oversized pilot holes and rubber-washered fasteners to allow for thermal expansion and contraction, preventing stress-induced failure.
Exposing the polycarbonate to harsh solvents not compatible with its chemical resistance profile, causing degradation.Consult the material's chemical resistance chart to confirm compatibility with all cleaning agents and lubricants used in the application.

Common Applications

  • Conveyor guide rails
  • Wear strips in material handling
  • Low-friction bearing surfaces
  • Chute liners
  • Impact shields in lubricating machinery

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid prolonged exposure to UV radiation unless specifically coated for outdoor use.
  • Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents that may damage the polycarbonate surface.
