Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Overtightening fasteners, causing stress cracks in the polycarbonate.Utilize washers and avoid direct contact between fasteners and the polycarbonate; tighten until snug, not to torque limit.
Using abrasive cleaning agents that can scratch the surface.Clean with mild soap and water, or a specialized polycarbonate cleaner, using a soft cloth.

Common Applications

  • Pressure vessel fabrication
  • Machine guarding and enclosures
  • Temperature control system components
  • Industrial sight glasses
  • Environmental control panels

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid exposure to harsh chemicals and solvents that can degrade polycarbonate.
  • Do not subject to continuous elevated temperatures exceeding manufacturer's specified limits to prevent deformation.
