Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard cutting tools not designed for plastics, leading to chipping or cracking.Utilize specialized plastic cutting blades (e.g., carbide-tipped) and maintain a slow, steady feed rate.
Applying excessive stress during fastening, causing spider-webbing or stress fractures.Employ pilot holes for fasteners and avoid overtightening. If bonding, use adhesives specifically formulated for polycarbonate and follow cure times strictly.

Common Applications

  • Hydraulic reservoir sight glasses
  • Protective shields for hydraulic pumps and valves
  • Custom manifolds and enclosures for hydraulic circuits

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid prolonged exposure to UV radiation without UV-resistant coatings, as it can degrade material properties.
  • Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents that may chemically attack polycarbonate.
