Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using a standard saw blade not designed for plasticsUtilize a fine-tooth blade specifically designed for cutting polycarbonate to prevent chipping and melting.
Over-tightening fasteners, causing stress cracksEmploy oversized holes and use rubber washers or spacers when fastening to allow for thermal expansion and prevent stress concentration.

Common Applications

  • Machine Guarding
  • Protective Barriers
  • Glazing and Skylights

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents that can damage the polycarbonate surface.
  • Do not expose to prolonged high temperatures that exceed the material's rated operating range.
