Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard cutting tools not designed for polycarbonate, leading to chipping or cracking.Employ a fine-tooth saw or a router with a specialized polycarbonate bit for precise, clean cuts.
Over-tightening fasteners, causing stress concentrations and potential material failure.Use washers and allow for slight expansion/contraction by not fully seating fasteners.

Common Applications

  • Electrical Enclosure Covers
  • Machine Guarding
  • Light Diffusers and Covers

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • May be susceptible to scratching; use appropriate cleaning agents and methods.
  • Avoid prolonged exposure to certain aggressive chemicals which may cause crazing or degradation.
