Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard fasteners without proper washers, leading to stress concentration and potential cracking.Utilize oversized washers to distribute load evenly and employ self-tapping screws designed for plastic to prevent over-driving.
Drilling holes too close to the edge, which can compromise the structural integrity of the sheet.Maintain a minimum edge distance of at least 2 times the hole diameter, or as recommended by material guidelines.

Common Applications

  • HVAC Unit Enclosures
  • Sight Glasses for Air Handling Units
  • Protective Guards for Fan Assemblies

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid exposure to strong alkalis and certain aromatic hydrocarbons, which can degrade polycarbonate.
  • Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents that can scratch or damage the surface finish.
