Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard drill bits without proper technique, leading to chipping or cracking.Employ a sharp, high-speed steel drill bit specifically designed for plastics. Drill at a moderate speed and apply steady pressure, allowing the bit to clear chips frequently.
Over-tightening fasteners, creating stress points that can lead to premature failure.Utilize washers to distribute pressure evenly. Fasten screws or bolts until snug, then back off slightly to avoid excessive compression on the polycarbonate.

Common Applications

  • Machine guarding
  • Protective barriers
  • Glazing for industrial equipment

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid prolonged exposure to solvents and strong alkalis, which can degrade polycarbonate.
  • Do not subject the sheet to excessive mechanical stress or impact beyond its rated capabilities.
