Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard cutting tools not designed for polycarbonate.Employ specialized saw blades designed for plastics to achieve clean, chip-free cuts and prevent thermal stress.
Over-tightening fasteners, leading to stress concentrations and potential cracking.Use nylon or neoprene washers and ensure fasteners are snug but not excessively tight, allowing for thermal expansion.

Common Applications

  • Machine guards for pneumatic equipment
  • Sight glasses in pneumatic cylinders and systems
  • Protective enclosures for control panels

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid prolonged exposure to UV radiation without UV-stabilized grades, as it can lead to yellowing and embrittlement.
  • Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents, as they can damage the surface and reduce clarity.
