Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using sharp objects to clean the polycarbonate surface.Utilize a soft, lint-free cloth with mild soap and water or a specialized polycarbonate cleaner.
Applying excessive clamping pressure during installation.Employ even, gentle pressure during fastening to prevent localized stress points that can lead to micro-cracking.

Common Applications

  • Hydraulic system sight glasses
  • Protective guards for hydraulic components
  • Machine enclosures in fluid-intensive environments
  • Fluid level indicators

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid prolonged exposure to UV radiation without UV-protective coatings, as this can degrade material over time.
  • Ensure compatibility with specific hydraulic fluids; consult material data sheets for chemical resistance.
