Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Drilling holes too close to the edge without proper support.Maintain adequate edge distance for drilled holes, or reinforce the area with additional material if necessary.
Using solvents that are incompatible with polycarbonate during cleaning.Always consult a chemical compatibility chart for polycarbonate. Mild soap and water or specialized polycarbonate cleaners are recommended.

Common Applications

  • Machine Guards and Enclosures
  • Sight Glasses and Windows
  • Custom Pneumatic Component Housings

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid prolonged exposure to UV radiation without protective coatings, as it can lead to yellowing and degradation.
  • Do not use abrasive cleaners or tools that can scratch the polycarbonate surface, compromising optical clarity and structural integrity.
