Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using a standard wood or metal cutting blade.Always use a blade designed for polycarbonate or plastics to achieve a clean cut without damaging the material.
Applying excessive pressure during cutting.Allow the saw to do the work; excessive pressure can lead to melting, chipping, or cracking of the polycarbonate.

Common Applications

  • Machine Guarding
  • Industrial Glazing
  • Protective Shields

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Always wear appropriate safety glasses and gloves when handling and cutting polycarbonate.
  • Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents that can degrade polycarbonate's surface properties.
