Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard fasteners that exert excessive localized pressure.Utilize slotted holes or oversized holes with appropriate washers to allow for thermal expansion and contraction, preventing stress cracking.
Exposing the polycarbonate to harsh chemicals without verifying compatibility.Consult the material's chemical resistance chart before exposure to solvents, acids, or bases. Consider protective coatings if necessary.

Common Applications

  • Custom Protective Packaging Inserts
  • Machine Guarding and Enclosures
  • High-Impact Display Cases for Shipping

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid prolonged exposure to UV radiation without UV-resistant coatings, which can lead to yellowing and degradation.
  • Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents that can scratch or chemically attack the polycarbonate surface.
