Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using incorrect solvent cement or primer not rated for polycarbonate.Always use solvent cements and primers specifically formulated and recommended for polycarbonate materials to ensure a strong, leak-proof bond.
Over-tightening threaded connections, leading to stress cracking.When using threaded fittings, tighten only until snug. Overtightening can induce stress concentrations and compromise the pipe's integrity.

Common Applications

  • Sight glass applications
  • Chemical processing pipelines
  • High-impact protective shielding

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid exposure to strong alkalis or chlorinated hydrocarbons, which can degrade polycarbonate.
  • Verify compatibility with specific chemicals and operating temperatures before installation.
