Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard fasteners without washers, leading to localized stress and potential cracking.Always use wide-head washers with fasteners to distribute pressure evenly across the polycarbonate surface.
Exposing the sheet to harsh chemicals that can degrade polycarbonate.Consult a chemical resistance chart to ensure compatibility with cleaning agents and environmental substances.

Common Applications

  • Machine Guarding
  • Protective Barriers
  • Glazing for Safety Windows

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid prolonged exposure to UV radiation without UV-coated options, as this can lead to yellowing and embrittlement.
  • Do not use abrasive cleaners or tools that can scratch the surface, compromising optical clarity and structural integrity.
