Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using a standard wood saw blade, which can lead to melting and chipping.Utilize a blade specifically designed for cutting polycarbonate, typically with a high tooth count and negative rake angle.
Over-tightening fasteners, causing stress cracks around holes.Employ oversized holes with washers or nylon spacers to allow for thermal expansion and contraction, and avoid direct metal-to-plastic contact.

Common Applications

  • Machine guards and safety shields
  • Protective barriers and enclosures
  • Custom fabrication and display cases

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE), including safety glasses and gloves, during handling and fabrication.
  • Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents that can damage the polycarbonate surface; use mild soap and water for cleaning.
