Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard fasteners that can cause stress concentrations.Utilize oversized holes with appropriate washers or use specialized fasteners designed for plastic sheet installation to accommodate thermal expansion and contraction.
Applying excessive heat during fabrication or installation, leading to deformation.Maintain appropriate temperature limits during cutting, drilling, or forming processes. Avoid direct, prolonged exposure to high heat sources.

Common Applications

  • Custom protective enclosures for sensitive shipments
  • Durable dividers and inserts for industrial packaging
  • Machine guards and safety shields in packaging lines

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid prolonged exposure to abrasive materials that may scratch the surface.
  • Use only cleaning agents specifically recommended for polycarbonate to prevent surface damage or hazing.
