Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Over-tightening fasteners, causing stress cracks.Use washers and tighten fasteners to a snug fit, avoiding excessive torque. Consider using slotted holes for thermal expansion.
Exposing the sheet to chemicals incompatible with polycarbonate.Consult a chemical resistance chart for polycarbonate before installation in environments with potential chemical exposure.

Common Applications

  • Pressure vessel sight glasses
  • High-temperature enclosures
  • Thermal insulation barriers

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Not suitable for continuous exposure to UV radiation without protective coatings.
  • Avoid contact with strong alkaline solutions which can degrade polycarbonate.
