Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Over-tightening fasteners, causing localized stress and potential cracking.Use a torque wrench and tighten fasteners incrementally and evenly around the perimeter.
Using abrasive cleaning agents that can scratch the polycarbonate surface.Clean with mild soap and water, using a soft cloth or sponge.

Common Applications

  • Hydraulic System Guarding
  • Sight Glasses for Fluid Levels
  • Protective Covers for Components
  • Manifold Windows

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid exposure to UV radiation for extended periods without proper UV-resistant coatings, as it can lead to yellowing and degradation.
  • Do not use harsh solvents or abrasive cleaners, as they can damage the surface finish and structural integrity of the polycarbonate.
