Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard metalworking tools which can cause cracking or melting.Utilize specialized plastic cutting tools such as fine-tooth blades or laser cutters, and maintain appropriate speeds to prevent overheating.
Over-tightening fasteners which can induce stress and lead to premature failure.Incorporate expansion gaps around fasteners and avoid excessive torque during installation to accommodate thermal expansion and contraction.

Common Applications

  • Machine guarding
  • Protective barriers
  • Glazing for industrial equipment

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid contact with strong alkaline solutions or certain organic solvents, as they can degrade polycarbonate.
  • Ensure adequate ventilation when cutting or machining to avoid the inhalation of dust particles.
