Installation Procedure

1. Measure and cut sheet to precise dimensions using appropriate cutting tools for polycarbonate (e.g., laser, CNC router, or fine-tooth saw). 2. Drill mounting holes slightly oversized to accommodate thermal expansion. 3. Secure sheet using appropriate fasteners, ensuring they do not over-tighten and cause stress cracking.

Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard acrylic cutting techniques, which can lead to chipping or cracking.Utilize cutting tools and speeds specifically recommended for polycarbonate to ensure clean, precise cuts.
Over-tightening fasteners, inducing stress points that can cause premature failure.Ensure fasteners are snug but not overtightened; use washers and consider expansion gaps.
