Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard cutting tools not designed for polycarbonate.Employ specialized blades or techniques (e.g., scoring and snapping for thinner sheets, laser or CNC for thicker) to prevent chipping and cracking.
Over-tightening fasteners, leading to stress cracking.Use oversized holes or slots for fasteners and avoid direct contact between the fastener head and the polycarbonate; employ washers if necessary.

Common Applications

  • Machine guards and enclosures
  • Protective barriers for conveyor systems
  • Custom material handling bins and trays

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid prolonged exposure to certain aggressive chemicals, which may cause crazing or degradation.
  • Do not expose to temperatures exceeding the material's rated continuous use temperature, as this may lead to deformation.
