Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard metalworking tools for cutting.Employ specialized polycarbonate cutting tools (e.g., carbide-tipped blades) designed to prevent chipping and melting.
Over-tightening fasteners, causing stress cracks.Utilize oversized holes and washers, and apply only sufficient torque to secure the sheet, allowing for thermal expansion.

Common Applications

  • Hydraulic Manifold Fabrication
  • Sight Glasses and Inspection Ports
  • Protective Covers for Hydraulic Components
  • Fluid Reservoirs

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid prolonged exposure to strong alkalis and certain organic solvents which can degrade polycarbonate.
  • Ensure proper ventilation during machining operations to prevent the accumulation of fine dust.
