Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard fasteners that are too sharp and can initiate cracks.Employ fasteners with a smooth, flat bearing surface or use washers to distribute pressure evenly.
Exposing the sheet to solvents that can degrade polycarbonate.Utilize only approved cleaning agents and avoid contact with aggressive chemicals.

Common Applications

  • Electrical enclosure panels
  • Lighting diffusers and covers
  • Machine guarding in electrical environments

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • May require pre-drilling for fasteners to prevent stress cracking.
  • Avoid prolonged exposure to temperatures exceeding 270°F (132°C).
