Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard cutting tools not designed for polycarbonate, leading to chipping or cracking.Utilize specialized saw blades or routers designed for cutting plastics to ensure clean, precise edges.
Over-tightening fasteners, causing stress concentrations and potential sheet failure.Employ washers and ensure fasteners are snug but not overly tight, allowing for thermal expansion and contraction.

Common Applications

  • Pressure vessel windows and sight glasses
  • Thermal insulation barriers in high-temperature equipment
  • Protective guarding for industrial machinery

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid prolonged exposure to UV radiation without a protective coating, as it can degrade material properties over time.
  • Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents that can scratch or chemically attack the polycarbonate surface.
