Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Over-tightening fastenersUse appropriately sized fasteners with washers and allow for thermal expansion by drilling oversized holes (typically 1/8" larger than the fastener diameter).
Using abrasive cleaning agentsClean the polycarbonate surface with mild soap and water, or a specialized polycarbonate cleaner. Avoid ammonia-based or abrasive products.

Common Applications

  • Machine Guarding and Safety Shields
  • Industrial Glazing and Windows
  • Protective Barriers and Partitions

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Do not expose to temperatures exceeding the material's continuous service temperature limit.
