Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Over-tightening fasteners, leading to stress cracks.Use oversized holes and consider using washers to distribute load. Avoid overtightening; fasteners should be snug but not stressed.
Using incompatible adhesives or solvents that can craze or damage the polycarbonate.Consult the material data sheet for recommended adhesives and cleaning agents. Test adhesives on scrap material first.

Common Applications

  • Machine guards and safety shielding
  • Glazing and skylights
  • Point-of-purchase displays and signage

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid prolonged exposure to concentrated UV radiation without a UV-protective coating if extreme outdoor longevity is critical.
  • Polycarbonate is combustible; maintain appropriate fire safety precautions during fabrication and installation.
