Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard cutting tools not designed for polycarbonate.Employ specialized cutting tools and techniques to prevent cracking, chipping, or melting of the material.
Over-tightening fasteners during assembly.Use appropriate clearance holes and consider expansion/contraction due to temperature changes to avoid stress cracking.

Common Applications

  • Machine Guarding
  • Protective Enclosures
  • Glazing for Industrial Equipment

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid prolonged exposure to solvents and harsh chemicals which can degrade polycarbonate.
  • Do not use abrasive cleaners or pads, as they can scratch the surface.
