Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard drill bits not designed for plastics, leading to chipping or cracking.Utilize sharp, carbide-tipped drill bits specifically designed for polycarbonate. Drill slowly and with adequate cooling.
Over-tightening fasteners, causing stress concentrations and potential sheet failure.Employ washers and do not overtighten. Allow for thermal expansion by drilling oversized holes and using slotted brackets where appropriate.

Common Applications

  • Machine Guarding
  • Protective Barriers
  • Glazing and Skylights
  • Signage and Displays

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid prolonged exposure to certain solvents which can degrade polycarbonate.
  • Do not use abrasive cleaners or scouring pads that can scratch the surface.
