Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard fasteners without considering thermal expansion.Utilize oversized holes or slotted fasteners to allow for polycarbonate's significant thermal expansion and contraction, preventing stress buildup and potential cracking.
Exposing the sheet to harsh chemicals that can cause crazing or degradation.Consult the material's chemical resistance chart and avoid contact with incompatible solvents, strong alkalis, or abrasive cleaners.

Common Applications

  • Machine Guarding
  • Protective Glazing
  • Industrial Enclosures
  • Safety Shields

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid prolonged exposure to UV radiation without proper UV coating, as it can lead to yellowing and degradation.
  • Do not subject the sheet to extreme temperatures beyond its specified service range, as this can compromise structural integrity.
