Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard fasteners without considering thermal expansion.Utilize fasteners with appropriate washers or slots to accommodate polycarbonate's thermal expansion and contraction.
Exposing the sheet to harsh solvents not compatible with polycarbonate.Refer to the material compatibility chart for approved cleaning agents and hydraulic fluids to prevent chemical degradation.

Common Applications

  • Hydraulic Sight Glasses
  • Protective Covers for Hydraulic Components
  • Machine Guarding in Hydraulic Systems

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid prolonged exposure to UV radiation without UV-protective coatings, as this can lead to yellowing and embrittlement.
  • Do not use abrasive cleaners or tools that can scratch the surface, compromising optical clarity and structural integrity.
