Installation Procedure

1. Ensure the sheet is clean and free of debris before cutting or drilling. 2. Use appropriate cutting tools designed for polycarbonate, such as a fine-tooth blade or laser cutter. 3. Secure the sheet firmly during fabrication to prevent movement and ensure precise cuts. Drill holes slightly oversized to accommodate thermal expansion.

Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard drill bits without proper technique.Employ a sharp bit designed for plastics or a brad-point bit, and drill at a slower speed with light pressure to prevent cracking.
Over-tightening fasteners, leading to stress cracks.Use washers and do not overtighten screws. Ensure holes are slightly oversized to allow for expansion and contraction.

Common Applications
