Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard drill bits without proper technique, leading to cracks.Employ a sharp, pointed drill bit designed for plastics. Drill slowly and apply moderate pressure. Consider using a pilot hole for larger holes.
Exposing the sheet to harsh cleaning solvents that can cause hazing or degradation.Clean only with mild soap and water or a cleaner specifically formulated for polycarbonate. Avoid abrasive materials.

Common Applications

  • Custom pneumatic control panel enclosures
  • Machine guarding for high-pressure pneumatic equipment
  • Sight glasses for pneumatic cylinders and accumulators

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Not suitable for applications involving prolonged exposure to UV radiation without UV-protective coating.
