Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard cutting tools not designed for plastics, leading to chipping or melting.Employ high-speed steel or carbide-tipped saw blades specifically designed for cutting polycarbonate. Maintain proper feed rates to avoid heat buildup.
Over-tightening fasteners, causing stress cracks in the material.Use washers with fasteners and do not overtighten. Allow for thermal expansion by drilling slightly oversized holes.

Common Applications

  • Machine Guarding
  • Protective Glazing
  • Industrial Displays

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

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