Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard metal cutting tools which can lead to chipping or cracking.Employ specialized polycarbonate cutting blades designed to minimize heat buildup and prevent material stress.
Over-tightening fasteners which can cause stress concentrations and eventual failure.Use clearance holes and consider rubber washers to distribute load and prevent localized pressure points.

Common Applications

  • Protective shielding for winches and hoists
  • Sight glasses for hydraulic lifting systems
  • Impact-resistant components in conveyor systems

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid prolonged exposure to UV radiation without appropriate coatings, as it may degrade material properties.
  • Ensure proper ventilation and use of PPE when cutting or machining polycarbonate to manage dust and fumes.
