Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard fasteners without considering thermal expansion, leading to sheet cracking.Utilize oversized holes or slotted fasteners to accommodate polycarbonate's thermal expansion and contraction.
Applying excessive force during fastening, causing localized stress and potential failure.Employ hand-tightening for screws and bolts, or use a torque wrench set to the manufacturer's recommended specification.

Common Applications

  • Pressure vessel windows and sight glasses
  • Temperature control system enclosures
  • Machine guards in high-impact environments

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid prolonged exposure to UV radiation without protective coatings, as this can lead to yellowing and reduced impact strength.
  • Ensure compatibility with all chemicals in the intended application environment; consult a chemical resistance chart.
