Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard glass cutting tools, which can cause chipping or cracking.Utilize specialized carbide-tipped blades or scoring knives designed for polycarbonate to achieve clean cuts.
Over-tightening fasteners, leading to stress risers and potential cracking.Employ washers and allow for slight expansion/contraction by not fully tightening fasteners, or use slotted holes for mounting.

Common Applications

  • Protective guards for janitorial equipment
  • Splash guards in washdown areas
  • Clear barriers in high-traffic facilities

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid prolonged exposure to UV radiation without a protective coating, as it can degrade the material over time.
  • Use cleaning agents specifically recommended for polycarbonate to prevent surface damage or hazing.
