Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Over-tightening fasteners leading to stress cracking.Use washers and avoid exceeding recommended torque specifications for fasteners.
Using abrasive cleaners or solvents that can damage the polycarbonate surface.Clean with mild soap and water or a non-abrasive plastic cleaner recommended for polycarbonate.

Common Applications

  • Hydraulic system sight glasses
  • Protective guards for hydraulic machinery
  • Manifold components requiring impact resistance

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid exposure to prolonged UV radiation without proper UV coating, which may lead to yellowing and brittleness.
  • Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as they can damage the surface finish and reduce optical clarity.
