Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard metal fasteners without consideration for plastic expansion/contraction.Employ oversized holes and neoprene washers with fasteners to accommodate thermal expansion and prevent stress on the polycarbonate.
Drilling holes too close to the edge, leading to potential cracking.Maintain a minimum edge distance of at least twice the hole diameter when drilling.

Common Applications

  • Machine guards and safety enclosures
  • Protective glazing for industrial equipment
  • Signage and display panels in harsh environments

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid prolonged exposure to aggressive chemicals that can degrade polycarbonate.
  • Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents, as they can scratch or damage the surface.
