Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard drilling bits which can cause stress cracks.Employ specialized polycarbonate drill bits with a sharp cutting edge and appropriate spade angle to minimize heat build-up and prevent cracking.
Applying excessive force during fastening, leading to spiderweb cracks.Utilize washers with sufficient surface area and rubber gaskets to distribute load evenly. Ensure fasteners are snug but not overtightened.

Common Applications

  • Machine Guarding
  • Safety Shields and Barriers
  • Architectural Glazing (high-impact areas)

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid prolonged exposure to certain aggressive chemicals that can degrade polycarbonate.
  • Maintain appropriate thermal expansion gaps during installation to prevent stress from temperature fluctuations.
