Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard metal cutting tools, which can cause cracking or melting.Employ specialized carbide-tipped blades or routers designed for polycarbonate to ensure clean cuts and prevent material damage.
Over-tightening fasteners, leading to stress cracks around mounting points.Drill holes slightly larger than the fastener diameter and use washers to distribute load, allowing for thermal expansion.

Common Applications

  • Machine Guarding
  • Protective Enclosures
  • Impact Shields

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Wear appropriate safety glasses and gloves during handling and cutting.
  • Avoid prolonged exposure to harsh solvents or abrasive cleaners, which can degrade the polycarbonate surface.
