Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Overtightening the polycarbonate screw, leading to thread damage or cracking of the head.Apply torque gradually and consult material datasheets for recommended torque values for polycarbonate fasteners.
Using metallic tools that can scratch or damage the polycarbonate surface.Utilize hand tools with protective coatings or plastic alternatives when possible to maintain surface integrity.

Common Applications

  • Electrical enclosures and equipment assembly
  • Medical device manufacturing
  • Chemical processing plants

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Not recommended for high-temperature applications exceeding polycarbonate's continuous use temperature limit.
