Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard screws without washers, leading to potential stress points and cracking.Utilize flat washers with all fasteners to distribute pressure evenly across the mounting surface.
Cutting or drilling polycarbonate with dull tools, resulting in jagged edges and micro-fractures.Employ sharp, specialized cutting and drilling tools designed for polycarbonate to ensure clean cuts and smooth edges.

Common Applications

  • Machine Guarding
  • Protective Shielding
  • Enclosures for Material Handling Equipment

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents, as they can damage the surface of the polycarbonate.
  • Avoid prolonged exposure to UV radiation without proper UV-resistant coatings, which can cause yellowing and degradation.
