Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard fasteners without consideration for thermal expansion.Utilize oversized holes or slotted fasteners to accommodate the polycarbonate's thermal expansion and contraction, preventing internal stress.
Employing abrasive cleaning agents or tools.Clean the polycarbonate surface with mild soap and water or a non-abrasive plastic cleaner to prevent scratching and maintain optical clarity.

Common Applications

  • Hydraulic system sight glasses
  • Fluid reservoir windows
  • Protective guards for hydraulic equipment

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid prolonged exposure to strong alkaline solutions, which can degrade polycarbonate.
  • Ensure proper ventilation when machining to prevent the buildup of fine polycarbonate dust, which can be an inhalation hazard.
