Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard acrylic instead of polycarbonate for high-impact areas.Always specify polycarbonate for applications requiring significant impact resistance, as it is up to 10 times stronger than acrylic.
Over-tightening fasteners which can lead to stress cracking.When fastening polycarbonate, use appropriate washers and do not overtighten screws; allow for slight expansion and contraction.

Common Applications

  • Machine guarding for pneumatic presses and actuators
  • Sight glasses and viewing windows for pneumatic cylinders
  • Protective enclosures for pneumatic control panels

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid prolonged exposure to UV radiation unless the sheet is UV-coated, as this can lead to yellowing and degradation.
  • Ensure proper ventilation when cutting or fabricating polycarbonate to avoid inhalation of fumes.
