Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using incompatible fasteners that can stress or crack the polycarbonate.Utilize fasteners with neoprene washers or other stress-distributing hardware to prevent localized pressure points.
Exposing the material to prolonged UV radiation without protective coatings.Select UV-coated polycarbonate or apply a UV-resistant film if the application involves significant outdoor or direct sunlight exposure.

Common Applications

  • Industrial machine guarding components
  • Overhead structural bracing elements
  • Custom support fixtures for electrical enclosures

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents that can damage the polycarbonate surface.
