Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard plastic fasteners that may cause cracking under stress.Utilize fasteners designed for polycarbonate or incorporate grommets to distribute stress.
Exposing the sheet to harsh chemicals that can degrade polycarbonate.Verify chemical compatibility with the specific hydraulic fluids and cleaning agents used in the application.

Common Applications

  • Hydraulic system guarding
  • Sight glass covers
  • Enclosure panels for hydraulic components

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid prolonged exposure to UV radiation without appropriate protective coatings, as this can lead to yellowing and embrittlement.
  • Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents that can scratch or chemically attack the polycarbonate surface.
