Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Drilling holes too close to the edge.Maintain a minimum distance of 2-3 times the hole diameter from the edge to prevent cracking.
Using abrasive cleaners or solvents.Clean with mild soap and water, or a specialized polycarbonate cleaner. Avoid harsh chemicals that can damage the surface.

Common Applications

  • Machine Guarding
  • Protective Enclosures
  • Impact-Resistant Glazing

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Do not expose to prolonged UV radiation without proper UV coating, as this can lead to degradation.
  • Avoid direct contact with certain chemicals, such as strong alkalis or chlorinated hydrocarbons, which can cause crazing or stress cracking.
