Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard cutting tools not designed for polycarbonate.Employ specialized saw blades or routers designed for plastics to achieve clean, chip-free cuts.
Drilling holes too close to the edge without adequate clearance.Maintain a minimum edge distance of at least 2-3 times the hole diameter to prevent stress concentration and cracking.

Common Applications

  • Machine guarding in high-impact environments
  • Pressure vessel windows and sight glasses
  • Temperature-controlled enclosures and HVAC components

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid prolonged exposure to strong alkaline solutions, which can degrade polycarbonate.
  • When cleaning, use only mild detergents and soft cloths; abrasive cleaners can scratch the surface.
