Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard fasteners without appropriate spacing, leading to stress points and potential cracking.Utilize oversized holes and expansion washers with fasteners to accommodate thermal expansion and contraction.
Employing abrasive cleaning agents or tools that can scratch or damage the sheet's surface.Clean with mild soap and water using a soft cloth. For tougher residue, use a plastic cleaner specifically designed for polycarbonate.

Common Applications

  • Machine Guarding
  • Protective Glazing
  • Industrial Partitions

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Do not expose to prolonged UV radiation without a UV-protective coating, as this can lead to yellowing and degradation.
  • Avoid contact with aggressive chemicals, solvents, and certain cleaning agents which can cause crazing or etching.
