Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Over-tightening fasteners, which can cause stress cracking.Use washers and avoid overtightening; allow for thermal expansion and contraction.
Using abrasive cleaning agents that can scratch the lubricated surface.Clean with a mild soap and water solution or a manufacturer-recommended polycarbonate cleaner.

Common Applications

  • Low-friction conveyor guides
  • Wear strips and bushings
  • Machine guards with reduced friction requirements

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid prolonged exposure to UV radiation without proper UV stabilization if used outdoors.
  • Not recommended for applications involving abrasive materials that could overcome the integrated lubrication.
