Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard cutting tools not designed for polycarbonate.Employ carbide-tipped blades or laser cutting to achieve clean, chip-free edges and prevent cracking.
Over-tightening fasteners, leading to stress concentration and potential failure.Utilize appropriate torque specifications and consider using rubber or neoprene washers to distribute pressure evenly.
