Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using incorrect solvent cement for polycarbonate.Always use solvent cements specifically formulated and recommended for polycarbonate to ensure a strong, chemically bonded joint.
Exposing the pipe to excessive UV light without protection in critical applications.While polycarbonate has good UV resistance, consider UV-protective coatings or enclosures for prolonged, direct exposure in highly sensitive environments.

Common Applications

  • Sight glasses and flow monitoring
  • Chemical processing lines
  • Protective conduit for sensitive components

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Not suitable for high-temperature steam service.
  • Avoid prolonged contact with strong alkaline solutions or certain chlorinated hydrocarbons.
