Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using incompatible solvent cement.Always use a solvent cement specifically formulated for polycarbonate to prevent material degradation and ensure a proper bond.
Insufficient curing time.Allow the solvent-welded joint to cure fully according to the cement manufacturer's specifications before subjecting it to pressure or stress.

Common Applications

  • Industrial Sight Glasses
  • Chemical Fluid Transfer Systems
  • Protective Tubing for Sensitive Components

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Polycarbonate can be susceptible to stress cracking in the presence of certain solvents and strong alkalis.
  • Avoid prolonged exposure to UV radiation without appropriate UV stabilizers, as this can degrade the material over time.
