Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using incorrect solvent cement for polycarbonate.Always use a solvent cement specifically formulated for polycarbonate to ensure proper fusion and prevent material degradation.
Over-tightening threaded connections.Polycarbonate can be brittle under excessive stress. Tighten threaded fittings hand-tight plus a quarter turn, or as specified by the fitting manufacturer, to avoid cracking.

Common Applications

  • Visible fluid transport systems
  • Chemical processing lines
  • High-impact conveying systems

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Polycarbonate is susceptible to damage from strong alkaline solutions and certain aromatic hydrocarbons. Consult chemical resistance charts before use.
  • Avoid prolonged exposure to UV radiation unless specifically treated for outdoor use, as it can degrade the material over time.
