Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard cutting tools not designed for polycarbonate, leading to chipping or cracking.Employ specialized carbide-tipped saw blades or laser cutters designed for plastics to achieve clean, precise cuts.
Over-tightening fasteners, causing stress concentrations and potential cracking.Utilize washers and ensure fasteners are snug but not overtightened, allowing for thermal expansion and contraction.

Common Applications

  • Machine guarding and enclosures
  • Impact-resistant partitions and barriers
  • Wear-resistant surfaces for chutes and hoppers

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid prolonged exposure to UV radiation without proper UV coating, as it can degrade the material.
  • Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents that can cause surface damage or chemical attack.
