Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard cutting tools not designed for polymer machining.Employ carbide-tipped or specialized router bits designed for plastics to prevent melting and ensure clean cuts.
Overheating the material during machining, leading to deformation.Utilize adequate coolant and optimize cutting speeds and feed rates to manage heat buildup.

Common Applications

  • Low-friction bearing surfaces
  • Wear pads and guides
  • Gears and sprockets

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Not recommended for continuous high-temperature applications above its service limit.
  • May absorb moisture, which can affect dimensional stability and mechanical properties if not accounted for in design.
