Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard drills without appropriate bit types, leading to cracking or chipping.Utilize drill bits specifically designed for plastics, such as a parabolic flute bit, and maintain a slow to moderate drill speed with light pressure.
Over-tightening fasteners, causing stress cracks and compromising material integrity.Employ washers and avoid excessive torque when fastening. Allow for thermal expansion by using oversized holes or slotted mounting points.

Common Applications

  • Protective barriers for high-traffic areas
  • Machine guarding for industrial equipment
  • Custom fabricated enclosures and partitions

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Not intended for use as a primary structural component without engineering review.
  • Avoid exposure to harsh solvents or abrasive cleaners that may damage the polycarbonate surface.
