Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Over-tightening fasteners leading to stress cracks.Use rubber washers and tighten fasteners just enough to create a seal without deforming the polycarbonate.
Using abrasive cleaning agents that can scratch the surface.Clean with mild soap and water using a soft cloth; avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents.

Common Applications

  • HVAC ductwork and enclosures
  • Protective shielding for heating elements
