Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard glass cutting tools, which can chip or shatter polycarbonate.Utilize specialized polycarbonate cutting tools such as fine-tooth blades on circular saws or jigsaws.
Drilling holes too close to the edge, leading to potential cracking.Maintain a minimum edge distance of at least two times the hole diameter when drilling.
Tightening fasteners excessively, inducing stress and potential failure.Use washers and tighten fasteners until snug, allowing for thermal expansion and contraction.

Common Applications

  • Machine Guards and Safety Shielding
  • Industrial Glazing and Windows
  • Protective Covers and Enclosures
  • Custom Fabricated Components

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid prolonged exposure to UV radiation without a UV-protective coating, as it can degrade the material over time.
  • Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents, as they can scratch or damage the surface of the polycarbonate.
