Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard cutting tools not designed for plastics, leading to chipping or melting.Employ specialized carbide-tipped saw blades or routers designed for cutting polycarbonate to achieve clean, precise edges.
Over-tightening fasteners, which can induce stress and lead to cracking or crazing.Use washers and do not overtighten; allow for slight expansion and contraction due to temperature changes.

Common Applications

  • Custom Measuring Fixture Substrates
  • Inspection Template Bases
  • Protective Guards for Sensitive Equipment

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid prolonged exposure to UV radiation without proper UV coating, as it can degrade material properties.
  • Use only approved cleaning agents compatible with polycarbonate to prevent surface damage or hazing.
