Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard cutting tools not designed for polycarbonate.Utilize carbide-tipped blades or specialized routing bits for a clean, chip-free cut, preventing micro-fractures.
Over-tightening fasteners, causing localized stress and potential cracking.Employ oversized holes or slotted mounting holes with rubber washers to allow for thermal expansion and contraction, preventing stress concentration.

Common Applications

  • High-impact protective packaging inserts
  • Machine guarding and safety shields
  • Custom industrial enclosures and windows

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid prolonged exposure to UV radiation without protective coating, as it may cause yellowing or degradation.
  • Use only approved cleaning agents (e.g., mild soap and water) to prevent surface damage or crazing.
