Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard metal fasteners without washersUtilize large-diameter washers to distribute load and prevent stress concentration, which can lead to cracking.
Drilling holes too close to the edgeMaintain a minimum edge distance of 1.5 times the hole diameter to prevent edge tearing or cracking.

Common Applications

  • Protective shields for sensitive equipment in janitorial closets
  • Custom splash guards for plumbing installations
  • Durable covers for access panels in high-traffic areas

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid prolonged exposure to strong solvents which may degrade polycarbonate.
  • Do not use abrasive cleaners that can scratch the surface, reducing clarity and optical properties.
