Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard drill bits for plastic, which can cause cracking.Utilize specialized 'plastic' or 'sub-zero' drill bits designed for polycarbonate to prevent chipping and cracking.
Over-tightening fasteners, leading to stress fractures.Employ washers and avoid overtightening. Allow for thermal expansion and contraction by not fastening too rigidly.

Common Applications

  • Machine Guarding
  • Protective Barriers
  • Custom Material Handling Components

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid prolonged exposure to UV radiation without appropriate coatings, as it can lead to yellowing and degradation.
  • Ensure proper ventilation during cutting and machining to prevent airborne particulate inhalation.
