Installation Procedure

1. Carefully measure and mark the desired cut lines on the polycarbonate sheet using a non-abrasive marker. 2. Utilize a fine-tooth saw blade designed for plastics to make clean, precise cuts, ensuring minimal heat buildup. 3. Deburr all cut edges smoothly to prevent stress concentrations and ensure proper fitment.

Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using a saw blade with too few teeth or a coarse pitch, leading to chipping and rough edges.Employ a saw blade with a high tooth count (e.g., 60-80 TPI) and a negative hook angle for a cleaner cut.
Applying excessive force during cutting, causing the sheet to flex and potentially crack.Allow the saw to do the work; maintain a steady, controlled feed rate without forcing the blade.

Common Applications

  • Wear Strips and Bushings
  • Guide Rails for Conveyor Systems
  • Low-Friction Bearings

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid harsh chemical cleaners that may degrade the polycarbonate.
  • Do not subject to continuous high temperatures exceeding its service limit to maintain lubricating properties.
