Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard fasteners without considering thermal expansion.Employ oversized holes or slotted fasteners to accommodate polycarbonate's thermal expansion and contraction.
Applying excessive clamping pressure during installation.Use moderate clamping force and distribute pressure evenly to avoid inducing stress cracks or warping.

Common Applications
