Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Over-tightening fasteners, causing localized stress and potential cracking.Use washers with fasteners and tighten them only until snug, allowing for thermal expansion.
Using abrasive cleaning agents that can scratch the polycarbonate surface.Clean with a mild soap and water solution, using a soft cloth or sponge.

Common Applications

  • Machine guards and safety shields
  • Protective covers for sensors and instrumentation
  • Light diffusion panels in industrial fixtures

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid prolonged exposure to UV radiation without UV-resistant coating, which can lead to yellowing and embrittlement.
  • Polycarbonate is susceptible to scratching; handle with care during installation and maintenance.
