Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard saw blades not designed for plastic.Utilize carbide-tipped blades specifically designed for cutting polycarbonate to prevent chipping and melting.
Over-tightening fasteners, causing stress cracks.Employ oversized holes and use washers with fasteners to allow for expansion and contraction, preventing undue stress.

Common Applications

  • Machine Guarding
  • Protective Screens
  • Industrial Glazing

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid contact with strong alkaline chemicals, as they can degrade polycarbonate.
  • Ensure adequate ventilation during cutting and fabrication to manage dust and fumes.
