Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard drill bits or saw blades not designed for plastics, leading to chipping or melting.Employ specialized plastic cutting tools and drill bits with appropriate geometries and speeds to prevent material damage.
Over-tightening fasteners, causing stress concentration and potential cracking, especially around drilled holes.Use washers and allow for a small amount of clearance around fasteners to accommodate thermal expansion and contraction of the polycarbonate.

Common Applications

  • Machine Guarding
  • Protective Glazing
  • Industrial Signage

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid prolonged exposure to certain aggressive chemicals that may degrade polycarbonate.
  • Do not use abrasive cleaners or scouring pads, as they can scratch the surface.
