Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using excessive force during tightening.Tighten the screw until it is snug and provides secure holding power. Polycarbonate has excellent strength, but overtightening can lead to thread deformation or fracture.
Not verifying thread compatibility.Always confirm that the M11 thread specification of the screw precisely matches the M11 tapped hole or nut to prevent cross-threading and ensure proper engagement.

Common Applications

  • Electrical enclosures and components
  • Medical device assemblies
  • Corrosion-resistant applications

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid exposure to strong UV radiation for extended periods, which can degrade Polycarbonate over time.
  • While resistant to many chemicals, test compatibility with specific aggressive solvents before widespread use.
