Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard drilling techniques which can cause micro-cracking.Employ specialized polycarbonate drill bits and pecking to clear chips and manage heat buildup.
Securing the sheet too tightly, leading to stress concentration and potential fracture.Utilize elongated mounting holes and rubber washers to allow for thermal expansion and contraction without inducing stress.

Common Applications

  • Machine Guarding and Safety Shields
  • High-Pressure Sight Glasses
  • Temperature Control Enclosures

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid prolonged exposure to UV radiation without protective coatings, as it can lead to yellowing and degradation.
  • Use only approved cleaning agents; abrasive cleaners or solvents can scratch or damage the polycarbonate surface.
