Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard fasteners without washers.Always use wide-based washers to distribute pressure and prevent localized stress on the polycarbonate.
Machining or cutting without proper cooling.Employ flood cooling or high-speed tooling with chip evacuation to prevent melting and maintain dimensional accuracy.

Common Applications

  • Electrical Enclosures
  • Machine Guarding
  • Lighting Fixture Covers
  • Safety Shields

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid contact with harsh chemicals, solvents, and abrasive cleaners which can degrade polycarbonate.
  • Do not expose to continuous temperatures exceeding the material's rated limit to prevent deformation.
