Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard fasteners without washers, leading to localized stress points and potential cracking.Always utilize wide-base washers with fasteners to distribute load evenly across the polycarbonate surface.
Drilling holes too close to the edge or without proper edge distance, compromising structural integrity.Maintain adequate edge distance for drilled holes as per engineering best practices for polycarbonate to prevent premature failure.

Common Applications

  • Machine guards and enclosures
  • Protective shields for conveyors
  • Impact-resistant windows for material handling equipment

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid exposure to abrasive cleaners or solvents that can degrade polycarbonate.
  • Consider thermal expansion and contraction in design, especially in applications with significant temperature fluctuations.
