Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Over-tightening fasteners, leading to stress cracking.Use washers and tighten fasteners gradually and evenly, avoiding excessive torque.
Using incompatible cleaning agents that can craze or degrade the polycarbonate.Utilize mild soap and water or specialized polycarbonate cleaners. Avoid abrasive materials or harsh chemicals.

Common Applications

  • Hydraulic Reservoir Covers
  • Sight Glasses in Fluid Power Systems
  • Protective Shielding for High-Pressure Components

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Not suitable for direct contact with certain aggressive solvents (e.g., ketones, chlorinated hydrocarbons).
  • Avoid prolonged exposure to UV radiation without a UV-resistant coating, as it may lead to yellowing and reduced impact strength over time.
