Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard cutting tools not designed for polycarbonate.Utilize carbide-tipped blades or specialized polycarbonate cutting tools to prevent chipping and ensure clean edges.
Over-tightening fasteners, causing stress cracks.Employ washers and avoid overtightening screws; allow for thermal expansion by using slotted holes if necessary.

Common Applications

  • Precision gauging and fixture components
  • Protective shielding for inspection equipment
  • Optical measurement surfaces and templates

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid exposure to strong alkaline solutions, which can degrade polycarbonate.
  • Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents, as they can scratch or damage the surface.
