Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using fasteners that are too sharp or pointed, which can initiate cracks in the polycarbonate.Employ fasteners with a blunt tip or use washers to distribute pressure evenly.
Exposing the polycarbonate to solvents or chemicals not compatible with its composition, leading to degradation or hazing.Consult a chemical compatibility chart and ensure only approved cleaning agents and hydraulic fluids are used.

Common Applications

  • Hydraulic system sight glasses
  • Protective shielding for hydraulic components
  • Fluid reservoir windows
  • Machine guards for hydraulic presses

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Do not exceed the maximum operating temperature of 250°F (121°C).
  • Avoid prolonged exposure to UV radiation without proper UV coating, as it can cause yellowing and embrittlement over time.
