Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using incorrect joining methods not rated for polycarbonate.Always use solvent cements and mechanical fittings specifically formulated and tested for polycarbonate pipe to ensure a secure and leak-proof seal.
Exposing the pipe to chemicals or solvents incompatible with polycarbonate.Consult chemical compatibility charts for polycarbonate to prevent degradation, cracking, or premature failure of the pipe.

Common Applications

  • Sight glasses for fluid monitoring
  • Protective enclosures for sensitive equipment
  • Low-pressure fluid conveyance systems

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Not suitable for high-pressure or high-temperature applications exceeding polycarbonate's rated limits.
  • Avoid prolonged exposure to UV radiation which may cause yellowing or degradation without appropriate UV stabilizers.
