Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard acrylic instead of polycarbonate for high-impact areas.Always select polycarbonate for pneumatic applications requiring superior impact resistance and shatterproof qualities.
Improper edge finishing leading to stress concentrations.Ensure all cut edges are smoothly deburred and, if necessary, flame-polished to prevent cracking under stress.

Common Applications

  • Pneumatic cylinder guards
  • Enclosures for pneumatic control panels
  • Sight glasses for fluid reservoirs

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid prolonged exposure to UV radiation without appropriate coatings, as this can lead to degradation.
  • Use only compatible cleaning agents; harsh chemicals can cause crazing or damage the polycarbonate surface.
