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 plastics to prevent chipping and melting.
Over-tightening fasteners, causing stress cracking.Employ washers and avoid direct metal-to-plastic contact. Gradually tighten fasteners in a cross pattern to distribute stress evenly.

Common Applications

  • Protective shielding for abrasive machinery
  • Polishing substrate surfaces
  • Tooling and jig components in finishing processes

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid exposure to strong alkalis and certain organic solvents, which can cause crazing or degradation.
  • When cleaning, use mild detergents and soft cloths; avoid abrasive cleaners or sharp objects.
