Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Over-tightening fasteners causing stress cracking.Use washers and do not overtighten fasteners. Allow for thermal expansion by not fixing the sheet rigidly across its entire surface.
Using abrasive cleaning agents that scratch the surface.Clean with mild soap and water, or specialized polycarbonate cleaners. Avoid paper towels; use soft, lint-free cloths.

Common Applications

  • Machine Guards
  • Protective Barriers
  • Safety Glazing

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Not intended for use as ballistic-resistant material unless specifically certified.
  • Avoid prolonged exposure to UV radiation without proper coating, as it may lead to yellowing and reduced impact strength.
