Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard polycarbonate for high-friction applications.Select the lubricating grade polycarbonate for optimal wear and friction reduction.
Improper cutting techniques leading to micro-fractures.Utilize sharp, carbide-tipped blades designed for plastics and maintain consistent feed rates during cutting.

Common Applications

  • Wear strips and guides
  • Low-friction bearings
  • Slide mechanisms

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid exposure to strong alkalis and certain chlorinated hydrocarbons, which can degrade polycarbonate.
  • Do not use abrasive cleaners or tools that can scratch the surface, compromising lubricating properties.
