Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Over-tightening fasteners, leading to stress cracks and premature failure.Utilize washers and avoid excessive torque when securing the sheet. Leave slight room for thermal expansion.
Using incompatible cleaning agents that can cloud or degrade the polycarbonate surface.Employ mild soap and water or specialized polycarbonate cleaners for maintenance. Avoid abrasive solvents.

Common Applications

  • Electrical Enclosure Components
  • Machine Guarding
  • Lighting Diffusers and Covers

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid exposure to prolonged UV radiation without a protective coating, as it may lead to yellowing and reduced impact strength.
  • Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents, as they can damage the surface finish and optical properties.
