Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard fasteners without considering thermal expansion.Utilize oversized holes or slotted brackets during fastening to accommodate polycarbonate's expansion and contraction due to temperature changes, preventing stress and cracking.
Using adhesives or sealants not specifically designed for polycarbonate.Employ only adhesives and sealants explicitly formulated for polycarbonate to prevent chemical attack, crazing, or delamination.

Common Applications

  • Machine Guards & Safety Shields
  • Impact-Resistant Glazing
  • Protective Barriers & Enclosures

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents, as they can scratch or damage the polycarbonate surface.
  • Ensure proper ventilation when fabricating or working with polycarbonate to avoid inhalation of fumes.
