Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard fasteners without washers.Employ flat washers to distribute pressure and prevent localized stress points on the polycarbonate surface.
Drilling holes too close to the edge.Maintain a minimum edge distance of at least 2-3 times the hole diameter to prevent material tearing or cracking.

Common Applications

  • Protective machine guarding
  • Optical inspection windows
  • Custom measurement fixtures

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid contact with harsh chemicals, as this may degrade the polycarbonate.
  • Do not use abrasive cleaners or tools that can scratch the surface, compromising optical clarity.
