Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard drilling bits which can cause cracking.Utilize specialized drill bits designed for plastics or a multi-step drilling process to prevent thermal stress and chipping.
Over-tightening fasteners, leading to stress concentrations and potential failure.Employ washers and ensure fasteners are snug but not overtightened, allowing for the natural expansion and contraction of the material due to temperature changes.

Common Applications

  • Machine Guarding
  • Industrial Glazing
  • Protective Barriers
  • Signage
  • Thermoformed Parts

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid prolonged exposure to certain solvents and cleaning agents which can degrade polycarbonate.
  • Do not use abrasive cleaners or pads as they can scratch the surface, compromising optical clarity.
