Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using incompatible solvents or adhesives not rated for polycarbonate.Always use solvent cements or adhesives specifically formulated for polycarbonate to prevent material degradation and joint failure.
Over-tightening mechanical fittings, leading to stress cracking.Follow manufacturer's torque specifications for mechanical fittings to avoid excessive stress on the polycarbonate material.

Common Applications

  • Pneumatic Conveying Systems
  • Fluid Sight Glasses and Observation Tubes
  • Protective Housings and Guards
  • Low-Pressure Fluid Transfer

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Polycarbonate can be susceptible to stress cracking when exposed to certain chemicals, including strong alkalis and chlorinated hydrocarbons. Verify chemical compatibility before use.
  • Avoid prolonged exposure to UV radiation without appropriate protection, as it can degrade the material over time. Consider UV-resistant coatings or enclosures for outdoor applications.
