Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using inappropriate fasteners that can stress or crack the polycarbonate.Employ oversized washers and neoprene seals with fasteners to distribute load and prevent over-tightening, allowing for thermal expansion.
Cutting the polycarbonate sheet with tools not designed for plastic, leading to chipping or melting.Utilize fine-tooth saw blades specifically designed for cutting plastics, such as a circular saw with a carbide-tipped blade, and ensure proper blade speed.

Common Applications

  • Structural bracing in modular construction
  • Protective shielding for equipment
  • Custom jigs and fixtures

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents that can damage the polycarbonate surface.
  • Ensure proper ventilation when cutting or fabricating to avoid inhaling dust particles.
