Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard drill bits for holes, leading to cracking.Utilize specialized drill bits designed for plastics, or a standard bit with a 60-degree point angle, and slow speeds with lubrication.
Over-tightening fasteners, causing stress cracks.Employ washers and ensure fasteners are snug but not overtightened. Consider expansion gaps for larger installations.

Common Applications

  • Machine guarding and enclosures
  • Industrial shelving and support structures
  • Custom bracing components

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid prolonged exposure to UV radiation unless coated for outdoor use.
  • Ensure proper ventilation during cutting and fabrication to dissipate heat.
