Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard metal fasteners without proper spacing or washers.Employ oversized holes and use appropriate plastic washers or grommets to accommodate thermal expansion and prevent stress concentration.
Cutting polycarbonate with standard woodworking blades.Utilize blades specifically designed for plastics, such as those with a high tooth count and negative hook angle, to prevent chipping and melting.

Common Applications

  • Machine guards and safety enclosures
  • Glazing and protective shields
  • Industrial signage and displays

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid prolonged exposure to strong alkaline solutions, as they can cause stress cracking.
  • Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents, which can damage the surface finish.
