Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using abrasive cleaners that can scratch the polycarbonate surface.Clean with mild soap and water, or a specialized polycarbonate cleaner and a soft cloth.
Over-tightening fasteners, which can cause stress cracking.Use washers and allow for expansion by not overtightening fasteners. Consider slotted holes for mounting.

Common Applications

  • Industrial filtration media support
  • Protective shielding for optical sensors
  • Machine guards and enclosures
  • Light diffusion panels

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid prolonged exposure to strong alkaline solutions, as they can degrade polycarbonate.
  • Do not use solvents such as acetone or MEK, as they will craze and damage the material.
