Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Over-tightening fasteners, leading to stress cracks.Utilize washers and tighten fasteners incrementally to a snug fit, allowing for minor thermal expansion.
Using abrasive cleaning agents that can scratch the surface.Clean with mild soap and water, or a non-abrasive plastic cleaner, using a soft cloth.

Common Applications

  • Electrical Enclosure Covers
  • Machine Guards and Safety Shields
  • Industrial Lighting Fixtures

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid prolonged exposure to UV radiation unless specifically UV-stabilized, as this can lead to yellowing and degradation.
  • Do not use harsh solvents (e.g., acetone, MEK) as they can chemically attack and damage polycarbonate.
