Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard drill bits which can cause chipping or cracking.Employ high-speed steel (HSS) drill bits specifically designed for plastics, or use a specialized polycarbonate drill bit. Ensure a sharp bit and moderate speed.
Over-tightening fasteners, leading to stress cracks.Use washers to distribute load and only tighten fasteners until snug. Allow for thermal expansion by not over-compressing the material.

Common Applications

  • Machine Guarding
  • Protective Barriers
  • Point-of-Purchase Displays
  • Custom Fabrication

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid prolonged exposure to strong alkaline solutions, which can degrade polycarbonate.
  • Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents that can scratch or cloud the surface.
