Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Over-tightening fasteners, causing stress concentration and potential cracking.Use spacers or washers and tighten fasteners until snug, not fully torqued. If drilling holes, ensure they are slightly oversized to accommodate expansion.
Using abrasive cleaning agents or tools that can scratch the polycarbonate surface.Clean with mild soap and water, using a soft cloth. Avoid ammonia-based cleaners or harsh chemicals.

Common Applications

  • Machine guards for lifting equipment
  • Impact-resistant sight glasses
  • Protective barriers in material handling zones

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Not suitable for use with strong alkalis or chlorinated hydrocarbons.
  • Avoid prolonged exposure to UV radiation without proper coating, as it may lead to yellowing and degradation.
