Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard fasteners that are too sharp and can stress the polycarbonate.Employ fasteners with a broader bearing surface or use washers to distribute pressure evenly.
Drilling holes too close to the edge, leading to potential cracking.Maintain adequate edge distance, typically at least 2-3 times the hole diameter, for structural integrity.

Common Applications

  • Machine Guarding
  • Protective Shields
  • Custom Fabrication

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid harsh chemical cleaners that can craze or damage the polycarbonate surface.
  • Do not exceed the recommended temperature limits for forming or exposure to ensure material integrity.
