Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard fasteners without proper spacing, leading to stress points and potential cracking.Utilize a sufficient number of fasteners with adequate spacing. Employ washers to distribute load evenly.
Employing abrasive cleaning methods or solvents not compatible with polycarbonate, causing surface degradation.Clean only with mild soap and water or specialized polycarbonate cleaners. Avoid harsh chemicals and abrasive pads.

Common Applications

  • Custom machine guards for abrasive processing
  • Protective shields for grinding and polishing stations
  • Specialized tooling for surface finishing applications

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Do not subject to continuous UV exposure without appropriate UV protective coatings.
  • Avoid contact with strong alkaline solutions, which can degrade polycarbonate.
