Detailed Engineering Specifications

Purpose-built for heavy-duty applications, this 0.926-inch thick polycarbonate sheet boasts superior impact strength (Izod: 12 ft-lb/in) and excellent abrasion resistance. The material's low coefficient of friction (0.25) minimizes wear and heat generation in sliding applications. Its dimensional stability across a wide temperature range (-40°C to 120°C) ensures consistent performance. The 33-inch by 31-inch dimensions provide ample material for custom fabrication in areas requiring reduced friction, such as bearing surfaces, wear strips, and protective guards in high-cycle machinery.

Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard fasteners without proper washers or spacing.Utilize large-diameter washers and allow for expansion by drilling slightly oversized holes to prevent stress concentration and cracking.
Exposing the material to solvents or aggressive cleaning agents.Clean with mild soap and water or isopropyl alcohol. Consult material compatibility charts for specific chemical resistance.

Common Applications

  • Low-friction wear strips
  • Self-lubricating bearing components
  • Protective guards for sliding mechanisms

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid prolonged exposure to UV radiation without a protective coating, as it can degrade material properties.
  • Do not use abrasive cleaning pads or harsh chemicals that can scratch or degrade the surface.
