Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Overtightening fasteners, leading to stress cracks and premature failure.Use washers and tighten fasteners incrementally to a snug fit, allowing for thermal expansion.
Using abrasive cleaning agents or tools that scratch the polycarbonate surface.Clean with mild soap and water, using a soft cloth or non-abrasive sponge.

Common Applications

  • Pressure vessel windows and sight glasses
  • Temperature control enclosure panels
  • Protective machine guarding for high-pressure systems

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid prolonged exposure to UV radiation without appropriate UV-resistant coatings, as this can cause yellowing and degradation.
  • Ensure compatibility with chemicals used in the operating environment, as some solvents can attack polycarbonate.
