Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using the wrong solvent cement.Always use a solvent cement specifically designed for polycarbonate to ensure proper fusion and prevent material degradation.
Over-tightening threaded connections.Polycarbonate can be brittle under excessive stress; hand-tighten threaded connections and use PTFE tape for sealing, avoiding over-torqueing.

Common Applications

  • High-pressure fluid transfer
  • Sight glasses and visual inspection ports
  • Protective shielding and enclosures

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid prolonged exposure to strong alkaline solutions or certain aromatic hydrocarbons which can degrade polycarbonate.
  • Maximum operating temperature should not exceed the manufacturer's specified limits to prevent deformation or failure.
