Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard cutting tools not designed for polycarbonate, leading to chipping or melting.Employ carbide-tipped blades or laser cutting for clean, precise cuts without thermal damage.
Fastening the sheet too tightly, causing stress concentrations and potential cracking.Drill oversized holes and use appropriate washers to allow for thermal expansion and contraction.

Common Applications

  • Electrical Enclosures
