Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Over-tightening fasteners, causing stress cracks.Use washers and tighten fasteners incrementally to distribute load evenly, avoiding excessive torque.
Using incompatible cleaning agents that can degrade polycarbonate.Clean with mild soap and water or specialized polycarbonate cleaners; avoid abrasive chemicals or solvents.

Common Applications

  • Protective machine guarding
  • Thermal insulation barriers in process equipment
  • Clear sight windows for pressure vessels
  • HVAC ductwork and enclosures

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid prolonged exposure to UV radiation unless the sheet is UV-stabilized.
  • Do not use abrasive cleaning materials or harsh chemicals which can damage the surface.
