Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard polycarbonate for high-friction applications.Select this specialized lubricating grade polycarbonate for its inherent low friction properties.
Machining at excessive speeds or with dull tooling, leading to melting or chipping.Utilize sharp cutting tools and appropriate speeds for polycarbonate to achieve clean cuts and prevent material degradation.

Common Applications

  • Low-friction bearings and bushings
  • Wear strips and guides
  • Seals and gaskets in abrasive environments

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid prolonged exposure to UV radiation without proper shielding as it can degrade polycarbonate over time.
  • Ensure compatibility with specific lubricants and chemicals used in the application, as some may affect material properties.
