Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Drilling holes too close to the edge, leading to potential cracking.Maintain a minimum edge distance of at least 2x the hole diameter when drilling.
Using abrasive cleaning agents or solvents that can damage the polycarbonate surface.Clean with mild soap and water, or a non-abrasive, polycarbonate-specific cleaner.

Common Applications

  • Machine Guards and Safety Shields
  • Transparent Dividers and Barriers
  • Protective Covers for Equipment

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Do not expose to continuous temperatures exceeding 240°F (115°C).
  • Avoid contact with strong alkalis, ketones, and aromatic hydrocarbons, as these can degrade the material.
