Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard cutting tools not designed for polycarbonate.Utilize high-speed steel or carbide-tipped saw blades specifically designed for cutting plastic to prevent chipping and cracking.
Over-tightening fasteners, leading to stress cracking.Employ washers and allow for slight expansion/contraction by not fully tightening fasteners directly onto the polycarbonate surface.

Common Applications

  • Electrical Enclosures and Housings
  • Machine Guarding and Safety Shields
  • Lighting Diffusers and Covers

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid prolonged exposure to UV radiation without appropriate coatings, as this can degrade material properties.
  • Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents that can scratch or damage the polycarbonate surface.
