Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard fasteners without considering expansion/contraction.Employ oversized holes or slotted fasteners to accommodate thermal expansion and contraction of polycarbonate.
Applying excessive force during fastening, leading to stress cracking.Tighten fasteners to a snug fit without over-torquing. Use washers to distribute pressure.

Common Applications

  • Machine guards and enclosures
  • Protective barriers and partitions
  • Custom fabricated material handling components

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid prolonged exposure to UV radiation without a protective coating, as it may cause yellowing or degradation.
  • Use caution when cutting or machining polycarbonate to prevent chipping or cracking. Ensure proper tooling and techniques are employed.
