Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard cutting tools not designed for plastics.Utilize carbide-tipped blades specifically designed for cutting polycarbonate to prevent chipping and melting.
Over-tightening fasteners, leading to stress concentration and potential cracking.Employ oversized holes and install with washers to allow for thermal expansion and contraction, avoiding excessive torque.

Common Applications

  • Machine Guarding
  • Security Glazing
  • Protective Barriers

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid prolonged exposure to solvents and harsh chemicals, which can degrade polycarbonate.
  • Do not attempt to use flame to polish edges; this will cause yellowing and embrittlement.
