Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard cutting tools not designed for plastics.Utilize high-speed steel (HSS) or carbide-tipped saw blades specifically designed for cutting polycarbonate to prevent chipping and cracking.
Over-tightening fasteners, leading to stress cracks.Employ washers and avoid excessive torque when fastening. Allow for thermal expansion by using slightly oversized holes.
