Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard woodworking blades for cutting, which can cause chipping and melting.Employ specialized carbide-tipped blades designed for polycarbonate, ensuring a clean and precise cut.
Over-tightening fasteners, leading to stress cracks around mounting points.Utilize oversized holes and washers, and tighten fasteners only until snug, allowing for expansion.

Common Applications
