Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard screws that are too sharp or small, causing stress cracks.Utilize pan-head or button-head screws with washers to distribute load and prevent localized stress.
Drilling holes too close to the edge of the sheet, leading to potential fracture.Maintain a minimum edge distance of at least 1.5 times the hole diameter when drilling.

Common Applications

  • Machine guarding and enclosures
  • Sight glasses and inspection windows
  • Pressure vessel components
  • Thermal insulation barriers

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid prolonged exposure to abrasive chemicals that may degrade polycarbonate.
  • Do not subject the sheet to continuous impact loads exceeding its rated capacity.
