Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Drilling holes too close to the edge, leading to cracking.Maintain adequate edge distance when drilling, and consider using slightly oversized holes with washers to accommodate thermal expansion.
Using incompatible cleaning solvents that can craze or damage the polycarbonate surface.Utilize mild soap and water or specialized polycarbonate cleaners. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents like acetone and ammonia.

Common Applications

  • Machine Guarding
  • Protective Shields
  • High-Impact Glazing
  • Thermoformed Components

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Not suitable for applications involving prolonged exposure to certain chemicals, which can cause degradation.
  • Avoid excessive bending or stress concentrations during installation; pre-drilling and proper support are critical.
