Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard fasteners without consideration for thermal expansion.Employ slotted holes or use fasteners with neoprene washers to accommodate polycarbonate's thermal expansion and contraction.
Improper cleaning leading to scratching or chemical degradation.Clean using mild soap and water with a soft cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents that can damage the polycarbonate surface.

Common Applications

  • Machine Guards and Safety Shields
