Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard cutting tools not designed for polycarbonate.Employ high-speed steel or carbide-tipped cutting tools specifically designed for plastic to prevent chipping and melting.
Over-tightening fasteners, leading to stress cracking.Utilize appropriate spacing for fasteners and consider using rubber washers to distribute pressure evenly.

Common Applications

  • Pneumatic system enclosures
  • Machine guards for automated machinery
  • Transparent covers for pneumatic cylinders and valves

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid prolonged exposure to UV radiation without a protective coating, as it can degrade the material.
  • Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents that can scratch or chemically attack the polycarbonate surface.
