Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Drilling holes too close to the edge.Maintain a minimum edge distance of at least 2-3 times the hole diameter to prevent tearing.
Using standard glass cutting tools.Utilize tools specifically designed for cutting plastics, such as fine-tooth blades for saws and specialized drill bits for polycarbonate, to avoid chipping and cracking.

Common Applications

  • Machine guarding and safety shields
  • Protective barriers and partitions
  • Custom fabrication of industrial components

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid prolonged exposure to harsh solvents or abrasive cleaners, which can degrade the polycarbonate surface.
  • Account for thermal expansion and contraction when designing mounting systems to prevent stress-induced failure.
