Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Over-tightening fasteners, leading to stress cracking and reduced impact resistance.Use washers with fasteners and tighten only until snug. Avoid excessive torque.
Using aggressive cleaning solvents that can degrade polycarbonate's surface.Clean with mild soap and water or a specialized polycarbonate cleaner. Avoid ammonia-based or abrasive cleaners.

Common Applications

  • Electrical Enclosure Covers
  • Machine Guarding
  • Lighting Diffusers and Shields
  • Protective Displays

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid prolonged exposure to UV radiation without UV-resistant coatings, as it can lead to yellowing and embrittlement.
  • Handle with care to prevent scratches, which can compromise optical clarity and structural integrity.
