Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using incorrect solvent cement not specifically formulated for polycarbonate.Always use a high-quality solvent cement certified for use with polycarbonate to ensure a strong, leak-proof bond.
Over-tightening threaded connections, leading to stress cracking.Hand-tighten threaded polycarbonate fittings and use Teflon tape or pipe dope sparingly. Avoid excessive force.
