Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard cutting tools not designed for plastics, leading to chipping or cracking.Utilize specialized carbide-tipped saw blades or routers designed for polycarbonate to achieve clean, precise cuts.
Over-tightening fasteners, which can induce stress concentrations and lead to cracking, especially with thermal expansion.Employ slotted holes for fasteners or use appropriate washers and allow for a small gap to accommodate thermal expansion and contraction.

Common Applications

  • Pressure vessel sight glasses
  • Thermal insulation barriers
  • Protective machine guarding for high-pressure systems
  • Instrument enclosures with temperature regulation

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • May require UV protective coatings for prolonged outdoor exposure to prevent degradation.
  • Subject to stress cracking when exposed to certain chemicals; consult chemical compatibility charts.
