Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard fasteners that can over-tighten and crack the polycarbonate.Employ oversized holes with washers to allow for thermal expansion and use fasteners with controlled torque settings.
Cutting or drilling without proper support, leading to chipping or cracking.Use sharp, specialized cutting tools for plastics and ensure adequate support during machining operations.

Common Applications

  • Machine Guarding
