Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard cutting tools not designed for plastic, leading to chipping or cracking.Employ carbide-tipped blades or a specialized plastic cutting saw for clean, precise cuts.
Over-tightening fasteners, which can cause stress concentration and eventual fracture.Use oversized holes with washers and allow for thermal expansion by not securing the sheet too rigidly.

Common Applications
