Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard polycarbonate where lubricity is required.Specify and use lubricating polycarbonate stock sheets for low-friction applications to prevent premature wear.
Improperly cleaning mating surfaces before installation.Thoroughly clean both the polycarbonate surface and the mating surface to ensure optimal contact and minimize potential abrasion.

Common Applications

  • Low-friction wear strips and guides
  • Slide bearings and bushings
  • Conveyor components and rollers

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid prolonged exposure to temperatures exceeding 240°F (115°C).
  • Use appropriate UV-resistant coatings if outdoor or prolonged UV exposure is anticipated.
