Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using incompatible adhesives.Always use solvent cements specifically formulated for polycarbonate to ensure a strong, reliable bond.
Over-tightening connections.Hand-tighten fittings and then apply an additional quarter-turn. Over-tightening can crack or damage the polycarbonate.

Common Applications

  • High-visibility fluid transfer systems
  • Protective machine guarding
  • Laboratory and scientific equipment
  • Optical light piping

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Polycarbonate can be susceptible to stress cracking when exposed to certain chemicals, particularly ketones and aromatic hydrocarbons. Consult a chemical resistance chart before use.
  • Avoid prolonged exposure to UV radiation without appropriate protective coatings, as this can degrade the material over time.
