Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard fasteners without allowance for thermal expansion.Employ oversized holes or slotted fasteners to accommodate polycarbonate's thermal expansion and contraction, preventing stress cracking.
Drilling holes too close to the edge.Maintain adequate edge distance (minimum 1.5 times the sheet thickness) to prevent tearing or stress concentration.

Common Applications

  • Protective barriers and shields in high-traffic janitorial areas
  • Chemical-resistant tank liners and containment systems
  • Durable splash guards and enclosures for plumbing fixtures

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid prolonged exposure to UV radiation without a UV-resistant coating, as it may degrade over time.
  • Use only approved cleaning agents; harsh chemicals can damage the polycarbonate surface.
