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.
Over-tightening fasteners, leading to stress cracking.Utilize appropriate torque specifications and consider using oversized holes or washers to distribute stress.

Common Applications

  • Low-friction wear pads and guides
  • Custom bearings and bushings
  • Slide mechanisms and chutes

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid exposure to strong alkaline cleaning agents, which can degrade polycarbonate.
  • Thermal expansion should be considered during design and installation to prevent warping or stress.
