Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Over-tightening fasteners, causing localized stress and potential cracking.Use washers and tighten fasteners snugly but not excessively. Allow for thermal expansion/contraction if the application requires it.
Using abrasive cleaning agents that can scratch the polycarbonate surface.Clean with mild soap and water or a specialized polycarbonate cleaner. Avoid paper towels, opting for soft, lint-free cloths.

Common Applications

  • Machine guards and safety shields
  • Protective barriers for hazardous areas
