Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Over-tightening fasteners, leading to stress cracks.Use washers and do not overtighten fasteners. Pre-drill holes and consider slotted holes for thermal expansion.
Using incompatible cleaning agents that can damage the polycarbonate surface.Clean with mild soap and water. Avoid abrasive cleaners, solvents, or ammonia-based products.

Common Applications

  • Protective barriers for shipping and handling
  • Machine guards and enclosures
  • Custom inserts for high-value item packaging
  • Glazing for industrial windows and skylights

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid prolonged exposure to certain aggressive chemicals which may degrade polycarbonate.
  • Thermal expansion should be accounted for in mounting designs to prevent warping or cracking.
