Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard fasteners without considering thermal expansion.Utilize oversized holes or slotted fasteners to accommodate polycarbonate's expansion and contraction due to temperature fluctuations.
Exposure to harsh solvents that can degrade polycarbonate.Employ only approved cleaning agents or mild soap and water for maintenance. Consult material compatibility charts before introducing any chemicals.

Common Applications

  • HVAC Enclosures and Guards
  • Temperature Control System Sight Glasses
  • Fan Shrouds and Protective Covers for Heating Elements

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents, as they may damage the surface or compromise material integrity.
  • Ensure proper ventilation when working with polycarbonate at elevated temperatures during fabrication to avoid potential off-gassing.
