Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using a dull cutting tool, leading to chipping or cracking.Utilize a sharp, fine-tooth saw blade or a router with a specialized polycarbonate bit.
Drilling holes too close to the edge or without adequate clearance for expansion.Maintain a minimum edge distance of 1.5 times the hole diameter and drill holes slightly larger than the fastener to accommodate thermal expansion.

Common Applications

  • Protective machine guards
  • Glazing for kiosks and displays
  • Signage and graphic overlays

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents, as they can damage the surface.
  • Ensure proper ventilation when cutting or fabricating to avoid inhaling dust.
