Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using excessive force during cutting or shaping, leading to stress cracks.Employ sharp cutting tools and maintain a consistent feed rate. Consider pre-drilling pilot holes for fasteners to relieve stress.
Exposing the polycarbonate to aggressive solvents that can cause crazing or degradation.Consult the material compatibility chart for recommended cleaning agents and solvents. Opt for mild detergents and water for cleaning.

Common Applications

  • Protective guards for machinery
  • Abrasion-resistant work surfaces
  • Polishing jigs and fixtures

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Not intended for use in applications involving prolonged exposure to extreme temperatures exceeding 250°F (121°C).
  • Avoid abrasive cleaning agents or materials that could scratch the optically clear surface.
