Installation Procedure

1. Ensure the mating threads are clean and free of debris. 2. Thread the M22 polycarbonate hex head cap screw into the designated hole by hand to avoid cross-threading. 3. Tighten using a compatible wrench or socket to the recommended torque for polycarbonate fasteners, typically lower than metal equivalents to prevent material deformation.

Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Over-tightening the polycarbonate screw, leading to thread stripping or head deformation.Use a torque wrench and consult application-specific torque charts for polycarbonate. Always start with a lower torque value and increase gradually if necessary.
Using metal tools that can scratch or damage the polycarbonate surface during installation or removal.Utilize plastic or coated tools, or ensure extreme care is taken with metal tools to avoid surface marring.

Common Applications

  • Chemical processing equipment
  • Food and beverage manufacturing
  • Electrical enclosures and assemblies
  • Medical device construction
  • Corrosive environment fastening

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Polycarbonate has a lower tensile strength and temperature resistance than many metals. Do not use in high-stress or high-temperature applications exceeding the material's specifications.
  • Avoid prolonged exposure to strong alkaline solutions or certain highly aggressive solvents, as these may degrade polycarbonate.
