Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard glass cutting toolsUtilize specialized tools for polycarbonate, such as fine-toothed saw blades, to prevent chipping and cracking.
Over-tightening fastenersEmploy gasketed fasteners or oversized holes with washers to accommodate thermal expansion and prevent stress concentrations that can lead to cracking.

Common Applications

  • Machine Guarding
  • Safety Glazing
  • Protective Barriers
  • Industrial Enclosures

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid contact with strong alkalis and aromatic hydrocarbons, as these can degrade polycarbonate.
  • Do not expose to continuous temperatures exceeding 240°F (115°C) to maintain structural integrity.
