Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using incorrect solvent cement not formulated for polycarbonate.Always use a solvent cement specifically designed for polycarbonate to ensure a strong, reliable bond.
Insufficient curing time before pressurizing the system.Allow the solvent cement to cure fully according to the manufacturer's recommendations before introducing pressure.

Common Applications

  • Visual fluid monitoring systems
  • Protective shielding for sensitive equipment
  • Low-pressure fluid transfer where visibility is key

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Not suitable for continuous exposure to high UV radiation without protective coatings.
  • Avoid contact with aggressive solvents and strong alkalis which can degrade polycarbonate.
