Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard acrylic instead of polycarbonate for high-impact applications.Always specify polycarbonate for applications requiring superior impact and shatter resistance.
Drilling holes too close to the edge, leading to potential cracking.Maintain a minimum edge distance of 2-3 times the hole diameter when drilling polycarbonate.

Common Applications

  • Machine Guarding
  • Protective Barriers
  • Industrial Glazing

⚠️ Engineering Warnings
