Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard polycarbonate for high-pressure hydraulic applications.Always specify and use polycarbonate specifically rated for hydraulic or high-impact environments.
Improperly supporting the sheet during machining, leading to stress cracks.Utilize adequate support and clamping mechanisms that distribute pressure evenly to avoid localized stress.

Common Applications

  • Hydraulic system sight glasses
  • Protective machine guards
  • Custom hydraulic manifold components

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid exposure to strong alkalis, which can degrade polycarbonate.
  • Do not use abrasive cleaners that may scratch the surface and reduce optical clarity.
