Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Over-tightening fasteners, leading to stress cracking.Use washers and hand-tighten fasteners, allowing for thermal expansion and contraction.
Using incompatible cleaning agents that can degrade polycarbonate.Clean with mild soap and water or a specialized polycarbonate cleaner. Avoid abrasive materials.

Common Applications

  • Pressure vessel sight glasses
  • Thermal insulation components
  • Protective machine guarding

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid prolonged exposure to UV radiation without proper coatings, as it may lead to yellowing and reduced impact strength.
  • Do not use in environments with aggressive chemicals that are known to attack polycarbonate.
