Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard polycarbonate for high-wear, low-friction applications.Utilize this specialized lubricating grade polycarbonate for optimal performance and longevity in such scenarios.
Over-tightening fasteners, causing stress concentrations.Employ oversized holes or slotted fasteners to allow for thermal expansion and contraction and prevent cracking.

Common Applications

  • Low-friction wear strips and guides
  • Self-lubricating bearing components
  • Slide mechanisms and chutes

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid exposure to aggressive solvents that can cause crazing.
  • Consider UV stabilization for outdoor applications if long-term exposure is expected.
