Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard cutting tools designed for brittle plastics, leading to chipping or cracking.Utilize specialized carbide-tipped blades designed for plastics, ensuring a clean cut with minimal heat generation.
Over-tightening fasteners, which can cause stress cracking and premature failure.Incorporate oversized holes or slotted holes in mounting brackets to allow for thermal expansion and contraction of the polycarbonate sheet.

Common Applications

  • Machine Guards and Safety Shields
  • Industrial Glazing and Windows
  • Protective Enclosures and Covers

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid prolonged exposure to strong alkaline chemicals, which can degrade polycarbonate.
  • Ensure adequate ventilation during fabrication processes to manage dust and fumes.
