Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard fasteners without washers, leading to stress concentration and potential cracking.Utilize flat, large-diameter washers with all fasteners to distribute load evenly across the polycarbonate surface.
Drilling holes too close to the edge, compromising structural integrity.Maintain a minimum edge distance of at least twice the hole diameter for all drilled holes.

Common Applications

  • Machine Guards for Pneumatic Machinery
  • Sight Glasses for Pneumatic Cylinders and Valves
  • Protective Covers for Pneumatic Control Panels

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid exposure to abrasive cleaners or solvents that may damage the polycarbonate surface.
  • Do not exceed the recommended maximum operating temperature range for polycarbonate to prevent deformation.
