Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard polycarbonate for high-wear or high-friction applications.Utilize this specialized lubricating grade polycarbonate for reduced wear and improved operational efficiency.
Over-tightening fasteners, leading to stress concentration and potential cracking.Employ appropriate torque settings and consider using washers to distribute load when fastening.

Common Applications

  • Low-friction wear strips
  • Guide rails for automated machinery
  • Material handling chutes and slides

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid prolonged exposure to UV radiation without proper UV stabilizers, as this can degrade the material.
  • Do not subject to excessive heat beyond its specified service temperature range, which can lead to deformation.
