Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Drilling holes too close to the edge without considering thermal expansion.Account for a minimum of 1/8" per linear foot for expansion/contraction when drilling holes, and maintain appropriate edge distances.
Using standard fasteners that can stress the polycarbonate and lead to cracking.Utilize fasteners with neoprene or rubber washers to distribute pressure and prevent stress concentration.

Common Applications

  • Industrial Machine Guarding
  • Protective Barriers and Shields
  • High-Impact Glazing

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid direct contact with certain aggressive chemicals, as they can degrade polycarbonate.
  • Ensure proper ventilation and handling procedures are followed due to the material's properties.
