Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard fasteners that can stress the polycarbonate and lead to cracking.Employ fasteners with large washers or a stress-distributing design, and ensure holes are slightly oversized to accommodate thermal expansion.
Applying excessive force during installation, causing localized stress points.Hand-tighten fasteners initially, then use a torque wrench to apply the manufacturer-recommended torque, ensuring even tightening across multiple points.

Common Applications

  • Custom sheaves for winch systems
  • Protective guards for lifting mechanisms
  • Durable guides and rollers in conveyor systems

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid prolonged exposure to UV radiation without appropriate protective coatings, as this can degrade material properties over time.
  • Ensure proper ventilation and handling procedures when cutting or machining, as polycarbonate dust can be an irritant.
