Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using incorrect solvent cement not rated for polycarbonate.Always use solvent cements specifically formulated for polycarbonate to ensure a strong, reliable bond and prevent material degradation.
Insufficient cure time after joining pipe and fittings.Allow the recommended cure time for the solvent cement to fully set before subjecting the assembly to pressure or stress.

Common Applications

  • Sight Glasses and Flow Indicators
  • Protective Conduits for Sensitive Components
  • Low-Pressure Fluid Transfer Systems

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Not suitable for high-pressure or high-temperature applications exceeding polycarbonate's operational limits.
  • Exposure to certain aggressive chemicals may cause degradation or stress cracking; consult chemical resistance charts.
