Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Drilling holes too close to the edge without reinforcementMaintain a minimum edge distance of 2x the hole diameter and consider using washers or reinforcing plates to distribute stress.
Using abrasive cleaning agents or solvents that can damage the polycarbonate surfaceClean with mild soap and water, or a specialized polycarbonate cleaner. Avoid ammonia-based cleaners or harsh solvents.

Common Applications

  • Protective guards for abrasive machinery
  • See-through covers for polishing equipment
  • Durable windows for industrial enclosures

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid prolonged exposure to UV radiation without a protective coating, as it can lead to yellowing and embrittlement.
  • Polycarbonate can be scratched by abrasive materials; use appropriate handling and cleaning procedures.
