Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Over-tightening fasteners, leading to stress cracks and premature failure.Use washers and allow for slight expansion/contraction by not overtightening. Consider expansion joints for larger installations.
Using abrasive cleaning agents or tools that scratch the surface.Clean with mild soap and water, using soft cloths or sponges. Avoid ammonia-based cleaners.

Common Applications

  • Machine Guarding
  • Protective Shields
  • High-Impact Glazing

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid prolonged exposure to UV radiation without UV-resistant coatings, as it can lead to yellowing and degradation.
  • Ensure proper ventilation during fabrication processes involving cutting or drilling to prevent the build-up of fumes.
