Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard cutting tools not designed for polycarbonate, leading to chipping or cracking.Utilize sharp, specialized blades for plastics, such as a fine-tooth saw or a router bit, to achieve clean cuts.
Over-stressing the material during fastening by overtightening screws or bolts.Employ washers and ensure fasteners are snug but not excessively tight. Consider slotted holes for expansion and contraction.

Common Applications

  • Low-friction wear strips
  • Conveyor system guides
  • Protective machine guards with sliding elements

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid prolonged exposure to strong UV radiation without appropriate UV stabilizers, as it may degrade material properties over time.
  • Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents that can cause surface damage or chemical attack.
