Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using incompatible solvent cement.Always consult the polycarbonate manufacturer's recommendations for approved solvent cements to ensure proper bonding and prevent material degradation.
Over-tightening threaded connections.Polycarbonate can be susceptible to stress cracking. Tighten threaded connections hand-tight plus a quarter turn, or as specified by fitting manufacturer, to avoid over-stressing the material.

Common Applications

  • Chemical processing and handling
  • Food and beverage production lines
  • Medical and pharmaceutical fluid transfer
  • Scientific instrumentation and laboratory setups

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Not suitable for high-pressure applications exceeding Schedule 40 ratings.
  • Avoid prolonged exposure to UV radiation if not specifically formulated for outdoor use, as it may lead to yellowing or embrittlement.
