Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard cutting tools not designed for plastics.Utilize sharp, carbide-tipped blades specifically manufactured for cutting polycarbonate to prevent chipping and ensure clean edges.
Applying excessive force during fastener installation.Employ pilot holes and use gaskets or washers to distribute pressure evenly, preventing localized stress that can lead to premature failure.

Common Applications

  • Machine Guarding
  • Protective Shields
  • Light Diffusers
  • Specialty Filtration Media Substrates

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid prolonged exposure to harsh solvents or abrasive cleaners which can degrade polycarbonate.
  • Do not use in applications requiring resistance to high concentrations of strong acids or alkalis.
