Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard fasteners that are not compatible with polycarbonate, leading to cracking.Utilize self-tapping screws with a wide flange or machine screws with washers designed for plastics to distribute load evenly.
Exposing the sheet to solvents or abrasive cleaners that can damage the surface or compromise its integrity.Clean with mild soap and water or a specialized polycarbonate cleaner. Avoid harsh chemicals and abrasive cloths.

Common Applications

  • Machine guards and enclosures
  • Hygienic partitions and cleanroom barriers
  • Temperature-controlled enclosures for sensitive equipment

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid prolonged exposure to UV radiation unless a UV-resistant grade is specified.
  • Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents, as they can damage the surface.
