Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard cutting tools not designed for plastics.Utilize specialized polycarbonate cutting blades or saws to prevent chipping and cracking.
Over-tightening fasteners, causing stress fractures.Employ gaskets and allow for slight thermal expansion by not rigidly clamping the sheet.

Common Applications

  • Machine guarding
  • Light filters
  • Protective shields

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid prolonged exposure to certain aggressive chemicals that may degrade polycarbonate.
  • Do not use abrasive cleaners or scouring pads, as they can scratch the surface.
