Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard cutting tools not designed for plastics, leading to chipping or melting.Employ specialized saw blades for plastics or a laser cutter to achieve clean, precise edges.
Over-tightening fasteners, causing stress concentration and potential cracking of the polycarbonate.Utilize fasteners with rubber or neoprene washers and avoid excessive torque during installation.

Common Applications

  • Protective guards for equipment and machinery
  • Sight glasses for tanks and piping systems
  • Enclosures for janitorial supply storage

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid prolonged exposure to UV radiation without a protective coating, as it may lead to yellowing or degradation.
  • Ensure proper ventilation when working with polycarbonate, especially during cutting or heating processes.
