Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard drill bits not designed for plastics.Employ specialized drill bits for polycarbonate or plastic, featuring a sharp point angle and adequate clearance to prevent chipping and melting.
Over-tightening fasteners, leading to stress cracking.Hand-tighten fasteners and use washers to distribute load. Allow for thermal expansion and contraction by slightly oversizing mounting holes.

Common Applications

  • Machine guarding in polishing and grinding stations
  • Protective shields for high-impact environments
  • Custom fabricated enclosures for industrial equipment

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents that can degrade polycarbonate.
  • Avoid prolonged exposure to UV radiation without appropriate protective coatings if outdoor use is intended.
