Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using incompatible solvent cement not rated for polycarbonate.Always use a solvent cement specifically formulated for polycarbonate to ensure a strong, leak-proof bond.
Over-tightening threaded connections, leading to material stress.Hand-tighten threaded connections and use a wrench only for a final quarter-turn, avoiding excessive force.

Common Applications

  • Chemical processing lines
  • Industrial instrumentation
  • Sight glasses and flow indicators

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Not suitable for use with strong alkalis or certain chlorinated hydrocarbons which can degrade polycarbonate.
  • Avoid prolonged exposure to UV radiation without appropriate protective coatings to prevent yellowing and embrittlement.
