Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Over-tightening fasteners, leading to stress cracking and reduced impact resistance.Utilize oversized holes with washers for fasteners and tighten them only until snug, allowing for thermal expansion.
Using abrasive cleaning agents or tools that can scratch the polycarbonate surface.Clean with mild soap and water, and use soft cloths or sponges. Avoid ammonia-based cleaners.

Common Applications

  • Machine Guarding
  • Protective Glazing
  • Industrial Enclosures

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Polycarbonate can be susceptible to certain chemicals; consult compatibility charts before exposure.
  • Avoid prolonged exposure to temperatures exceeding its rated maximum, as this can degrade material properties.
