Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Over-tightening fastenersUtilize washers and allow for thermal expansion by not overtightening screws, which can lead to stress fractures in the polycarbonate.
Using incompatible cleaning agentsClean polycarbonate with mild soap and water or specialized polycarbonate cleaners only. Avoid abrasive chemicals or solvents that can damage the surface.

Common Applications

  • HVAC Unit Enclosures
  • Machine Guards for Industrial Heaters
  • Protective Shields for Climate Control Systems

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Do not expose to prolonged UV radiation without a UV-resistant coating, as this can cause yellowing and degradation over time.
  • Avoid contact with strong alkaline or acidic cleaning solutions, as these can etch or degrade the polycarbonate surface.
