Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard fasteners that are too short or too long.Select fasteners with appropriate length and thread type to ensure secure mounting without damaging the polycarbonate.
Drilling holes too close to the edge of the sheet.Maintain a minimum edge distance of 2" when drilling holes to prevent stress concentration and potential cracking.

Common Applications

  • Machine Guarding
  • Protective Shields for Sensitive Equipment
  • Inspection Windows for Harsh Environments

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents that can damage the polycarbonate surface.
  • Do not expose to continuous high temperatures exceeding the material's thermal limits to prevent deformation.
