Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard drills and screws that can cause stress cracking.Utilize high-speed steel drill bits and countersink holes. Employ appropriately sized screws with washers to distribute load.
Exposing the material to harsh chemicals that can degrade its properties.Consult the chemical resistance chart for polycarbonate and avoid contact with incompatible solvents and cleaning agents.

Common Applications

  • Machine Guards & Safety Shields
  • Transparent Dividers & Barriers
  • Impact-Resistant Covers for Equipment

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents, as they can damage the surface.
  • Avoid prolonged exposure to UV radiation without UV-protective coatings, which can lead to yellowing and embrittlement.
