Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using incompatible joining methods or adhesives not rated for polycarbonate.Consult manufacturer specifications for approved joining techniques, sealants, and adhesives specifically designed for polycarbonate.
Exposing the pipe to temperatures exceeding its rated maximum operating range.Verify the pipe's temperature resistance against the operating conditions of the application to prevent deformation or material degradation.

Common Applications

  • Visual fluid monitoring systems
  • High-impact industrial conduits
  • Laboratory and research equipment

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid prolonged exposure to UV radiation unless specifically formulated for outdoor use, as it can degrade polycarbonate.
  • Not recommended for use with strong alkaline solutions or certain aromatic hydrocarbons, which can cause stress cracking or degradation.
