Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard cleaning agents not approved for polycarbonate.Always use cleaning solutions specifically formulated for polycarbonate to prevent surface damage and hazing.
Drilling holes too close to the edge without proper reinforcement.Maintain adequate edge distance when drilling and consider countersinking or using reinforcing washers to distribute stress.

Common Applications

  • Optical inspection windows
  • Protective guards for measuring equipment
  • Custom jigs and fixtures for precision assembly

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid prolonged exposure to UV radiation without appropriate protective coatings, as this can lead to yellowing and degradation.
