Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard drill bits not designed for plastics.Utilize specialized plastic drill bits with a sharp point and appropriate cutting angles to prevent chipping and cracking.
Over-tightening fasteners, causing localized stress.Employ washers and avoid excessive torque during fastening. Allow for thermal expansion with slotted holes if necessary.

Common Applications

  • Machine guards for high-pressure equipment
  • Sight glasses in chemical processing vessels
  • Temperature control panel enclosures

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid contact with strong alkalis and certain hydrocarbons, which can cause degradation.
  • Not suitable for continuous exposure to UV radiation without appropriate protective coatings.
