Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard fasteners that can stress the polycarbonate, leading to cracking.Employ oversized holes and cushioned washers with fasteners to allow for thermal expansion and prevent stress concentration.
Improper cleaning agents that can degrade polycarbonate surface properties.Utilize mild soap and water or specialized polycarbonate cleaners only.

Common Applications

  • Pressure vessel windows and sight glasses
  • Temperature control enclosures and housings
  • HVAC system components requiring high impact resistance

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid prolonged exposure to strong alkaline solutions, as this may cause crazing.
  • Ensure adequate ventilation when working with polycarbonate in enclosed spaces to manage dust and fumes.
