Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Over-tightening fasteners, causing stress cracks.Use hand-tightening or torque-controlled tools. Employ oversized holes and consider anti-vibration washers.
Using abrasive cleaning agents that can scratch the surface.Clean with mild soap and water, or a recommended polycarbonate cleaner, using a soft cloth.

Common Applications

  • Precision measuring fixtures
  • Inspection gauges and templates
  • Machine guards with visual access

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Do not use harsh solvents or abrasive cleaners, as they may damage the polycarbonate surface.
  • Avoid prolonged exposure to temperatures exceeding the material's maximum service temperature to prevent deformation.
