Detailed Engineering Specifications

Precision-manufactured to tight tolerances, this 0.679" thick polycarbonate sheet measures 21" in length and 22" in width. Engineered for low friction and excellent wear resistance, it provides a durable, self-lubricating surface. Its high impact strength (exceeding 100 J/m for notched Izod) and excellent chemical resistance make it suitable for applications such as bearings, slides, conveyor components, and wear strips where reduced friction and extended component life are critical. The inherent lubricity minimizes the need for external lubrication, simplifying maintenance and reducing operational costs.

Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard fasteners that are too sharp or not countersunk properly, potentially causing stress cracks.Utilize rounded-head screws or bolts and ensure fasteners are properly countersunk to avoid localized stress concentrations on the polycarbonate surface.
Exposing the sheet to continuous high temperatures beyond its service limit (typically 265°F / 129°C), leading to deformation or degradation.Verify operating temperatures do not exceed the material's continuous service temperature rating and consider heat dissipation if necessary.

Common Applications

  • Low-friction bearing surfaces
  • Wear strips and guide rails
  • Conveyor components
  • Bushings and sleeves

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid exposure to strong alkaline solutions and certain aromatic hydrocarbons, which can degrade polycarbonate.
  • Do not subject to prolonged UV exposure without appropriate UV stabilizers if outdoor applications are intended.
