Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Over-tightening the polycarbonate screw.Use a torque wrench set to the appropriate low torque setting for plastics to prevent stripping threads or deforming the head.
Using in applications requiring high shear strength or extreme temperatures.Consult material data sheets and application requirements; polycarbonate has limitations in these areas compared to metal.

Common Applications

  • Electrical enclosures and equipment
  • Medical device assembly
  • Food processing machinery
  • Corrosive chemical environments
  • Lightweight structural components

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid exposure to strong solvents and aggressive chemicals which may degrade polycarbonate.
  • Do not exceed the maximum operating temperature range for polycarbonate, as performance may degrade.
