Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard cutting tools not designed for plastics, leading to chipping or melting.Employ carbide-tipped blades specifically designed for cutting polycarbonate, utilizing appropriate feed rates and cooling.
Over-tightening fasteners, causing stress cracks to form in the polycarbonate sheet.Use washers and ensure fasteners are snug but not excessively tight. Consider slotted holes for expansion and contraction.

Common Applications

  • Machine guarding for pneumatic equipment
  • Sight glasses for pneumatic cylinders and valves
  • Enclosures for pneumatic control panels

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid prolonged exposure to UV radiation without protective coatings, as it can lead to yellowing and degradation.
  • Ensure compatibility with specific chemicals used in pneumatic systems; polycarbonate may be susceptible to certain solvents and aggressive cleaning agents.
