Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Over-tightening fasteners, which can induce stress concentrations and lead to cracking.Use washers and allow for slight expansion by not fully tightening fasteners initially; re-tighten after the sheet has settled.
Using incompatible cleaning agents that can degrade the polycarbonate surface.Clean only with mild soap and water or specialized polycarbonate cleaners. Avoid abrasive materials and harsh chemicals.

Common Applications

  • Structural bracing for modular systems
  • Protective shielding for high-impact zones
