Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Drilling holes too close to the edge, causing stress cracks.Maintain a minimum edge distance of at least 2 times the hole diameter when drilling.
Using incompatible cleaning agents that can craze the polycarbonate.Clean with mild soap and water or a specialized polycarbonate cleaner. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents.

Common Applications

  • Machine Guarding
  • Protective Barriers
  • Point-of-Purchase Displays
  • Industrial Glazing

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • May scratch if abrasive materials are used for cleaning.
  • Avoid prolonged exposure to UV radiation without a protective coating if outdoor use is intended.
