Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard fasteners without appropriate washers, leading to stress concentration and potential cracking.Utilize large-diameter washers or custom grommets to distribute load evenly across the polycarbonate surface.
Exposing the polycarbonate to incompatible chemicals that can cause crazing or degradation.Consult a chemical compatibility chart for polycarbonate before installation in environments with potential chemical contact.

Common Applications

  • Industrial Filtration Housings
  • Particulate Control Barriers
  • Machine Guarding for Filtering Equipment

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid abrasive cleaning agents that can scratch the surface.
  • Do not expose to prolonged UV radiation without appropriate UV-resistant coatings if outdoor use is intended.
