Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard cutting tools not designed for plastic, leading to chipping or cracking.Utilize a fine-tooth saw blade specifically designed for cutting polycarbonate, such as a carbide-tipped blade.
Over-tightening fasteners, causing stress concentrations and potential failure.Employ oversized holes for fasteners and use washers to distribute load, allowing for thermal expansion and contraction.

Common Applications

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

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents, as they can damage the polycarbonate surface.
  • Avoid prolonged exposure to temperatures exceeding the material's specified maximum service temperature to prevent deformation.
