Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard fasteners without considering expansion and contraction.Employ oversized holes or slots for fasteners to accommodate thermal movement and prevent stress concentration.
Drilling too close to the edge, leading to delamination or cracking.Maintain a minimum edge distance of at least 2-3 times the drill bit diameter when drilling holes.

Common Applications

  • Electrical Enclosures and Panels
  • Lighting Diffusers and Covers
  • Machine Guards and Safety Shields

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid prolonged exposure to UV radiation without appropriate coatings, as it can degrade material properties.
  • Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents that can etch or cloud the polycarbonate surface.
