Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Over-tightening fasteners, leading to stress cracks.Use washers and avoid excessive torque when securing the sheet. Leave slight clearance for thermal expansion/contraction.
Using incompatible cleaning agents that can damage the polycarbonate surface.Employ mild soap and water or specialized polycarbonate cleaners only. Avoid abrasive materials and harsh chemicals.

Common Applications

  • Machine guarding and protective barriers
  • Structural bracing for lightweight assemblies
  • Glazing for industrial enclosures and skylights

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Maintain appropriate support spacing to prevent excessive deflection.
  • Avoid prolonged exposure to certain aggressive chemicals, which may cause degradation.
