Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Over-tightening fasteners, leading to stress cracking.Utilize washers and avoid direct metal-to-plastic contact. Ensure fasteners are snug, not overtightened.
Using incorrect cutting tools, resulting in poor edge finish and potential cracking.Employ sharp, carbide-tipped blades designed for plastic cutting. Maintain consistent feed rates and avoid excessive heat buildup.

Common Applications

  • Pneumatic control panel enclosures
  • Machine guarding for automated systems
  • Sight glasses and inspection windows
  • Pressure vessel covers

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid prolonged exposure to UV radiation without protective coatings, as it can degrade material properties.
  • Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents that are incompatible with polycarbonate, as they can cause surface damage and reduce clarity.
