Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard drill bits without specialized polycarbonate bits, leading to chipping or melting.Employ carbide-tipped drill bits designed for plastics or use a high-speed steel bit with a reduced cutting angle and adequate cooling.
Over-tightening fasteners, inducing stress concentrations that can lead to cracking.Use gasketed fasteners and allow for thermal expansion by drilling oversized holes and incorporating slotted brackets where necessary.

Common Applications

  • Machine guarding and safety shields
  • Glazing for industrial windows and skylights
  • Protective barriers and partitions

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid contact with aggressive chemicals, solvents, and abrasive cleaners that can degrade polycarbonate.
  • Do not use excessive heat during fabrication, as overheating can warp or melt the material.
