Detailed Engineering Specifications

Engineered for reliability and performance, this 0.112" thick polycarbonate sheet exhibits superior impact strength (Izod impact: 12 ft-lb/in) and a high tensile strength (8,500 psi), crucial for components subjected to pressure and vibration in hydraulic systems. Its wide temperature range (-40°F to 250°F) ensures consistent performance in diverse operating environments. The material's excellent chemical resistance to many hydraulic fluids, coupled with its ability to withstand abrasion, makes it a preferred choice for protective covers, sight glasses, and fluid containment in demanding industrial settings. Dimensions: 38" x 35".

Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard cutting tools not designed for polycarbonate, leading to chipping or cracking.Utilize sharp, high-speed steel or carbide-tipped cutting tools specifically rated for plastics to ensure clean cuts.
Over-tightening fasteners, causing stress concentration and potential material failure.Employ washers and do not overtighten fasteners. Allow for thermal expansion and contraction by providing adequate clearance.

Common Applications

  • Hydraulic system sight glasses
  • Protective covers for hydraulic components
  • Fluid reservoirs and containment units

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid exposure to strong solvents and alkalis which can degrade polycarbonate.
  • Ensure proper ventilation when machining or heating polycarbonate to prevent the release of hazardous fumes.
