Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard fasteners that are too sharp or small, potentially cracking the polycarbonate.Utilize oversized washers and blunt-tipped screws or bolts to distribute stress and prevent cracking.
Drilling holes too close to the edge without considering thermal expansion.Drill holes with a slight oversize and incorporate slots to allow for expansion and contraction due to temperature changes.

Common Applications

  • Machine Guarding
  • Protective Shielding
  • Abrasion Resistant Components

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid prolonged exposure to UV radiation without appropriate coatings, which can cause yellowing and brittleness.
  • Use appropriate cleaning agents; harsh solvents can degrade polycarbonate.
