Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Drilling holes too close to the edge, leading to stress concentration and potential cracking.Maintain adequate edge distances when drilling, typically at least 2-3 times the hole diameter.
Using incompatible cleaning agents, which can degrade the polycarbonate surface and reduce clarity.Clean with mild soap and water or specialized polycarbonate cleaners. Avoid abrasive materials and harsh chemicals.

Common Applications

  • Machine Guarding
  • Safety Shields and Barriers
  • Point-of-Purchase Displays
  • Industrial Enclosures
  • Skylights and Glazing (high-impact areas)

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • This material is flammable and should be handled and installed in accordance with local fire codes.
  • Avoid prolonged exposure to UV radiation without appropriate UV-resistant coatings, as this can lead to yellowing and embrittlement.
