Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using incompatible joining methods or adhesives not rated for polycarbonate.Always use solvent cements or mechanical fittings specifically designed and approved for polycarbonate pipe.
Exposing the pipe to excessive UV radiation without protection, leading to degradation.If used in outdoor applications, consider UV-stabilized grades or apply UV protective coatings.

Common Applications

  • Sight glasses and viewing windows in industrial equipment
  • Protective conduits for sensitive instrumentation
  • High-impact fluid transfer systems in manufacturing

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid prolonged exposure to aggressive solvents or chemicals that may degrade polycarbonate.
  • Do not exceed the maximum recommended operating temperature and pressure limits for Schedule 40 polycarbonate pipe.
