Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard drills without a pilot hole or proper bit.Drill pilot holes and use a sharp, high-speed steel bit designed for plastics to prevent cracking.
Over-tightening fasteners, causing stress and potential cracking.Use washers and tighten fasteners just enough to secure the sheet without deforming it.

Common Applications

  • Machine Guarding
  • Safety Shields
  • Protective Barriers
  • Glazing in High-Impact Areas

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Always wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) when handling and cutting polycarbonate.
  • Avoid prolonged exposure to UV radiation without UV-resistant coatings, as it can degrade material over time.
