Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Over-tightening the polycarbonate screw.Always use a torque wrench set to the appropriate value for polycarbonate. Consult the material datasheet or a fastener specialist if unsure.
Using standard metal tools which can damage the polycarbonate head.Utilize tools specifically designed for plastic fasteners or ensure the tool's edges are smooth and do not exert excessive pressure on the head.

Common Applications

  • Chemical processing equipment
  • Medical device assembly
  • Electrical enclosure systems
  • Marine and offshore structures

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Not suitable for structural load-bearing applications requiring high tensile strength exceeding polycarbonate's capabilities.
  • Subject to creep under sustained high loads; consult engineering for applications with continuous stress.
