Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard blades for cutting, leading to chipping or melting.Employ a fine-tooth carbide blade specifically designed for plastics or polycarbonate.
Over-tightening fasteners, causing stress cracks.Use washers and do not overtighten fasteners; allow for slight movement to accommodate thermal expansion.

Common Applications

  • Electrical Enclosures
  • Machine Guarding
  • Lighting Diffusers
  • Industrial Control Panels

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents that can damage the polycarbonate surface.
  • Ensure proper ventilation when cutting or machining to dissipate heat and prevent melting.
