Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Drilling holes too close to the edge, leading to stress concentration and potential cracking.Maintain a minimum edge distance for drilled holes, typically 2-3 times the hole diameter, or as specified in fabrication guidelines.
Using abrasive cleaning agents or solvents that can damage the polycarbonate surface.Clean with mild soap and water or a polycarbonate-specific cleaner. Avoid harsh chemicals.

Common Applications

  • Machine Guarding
  • Protective Shielding
  • Inspection Windows
  • Point-of-Purchase Displays
  • Glazing

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Do not expose to prolonged contact with certain aggressive chemicals, as this may cause crazing or degradation.
  • Avoid using standard drill bits designed for metal; use bits specifically manufactured for plastics to prevent chipping and cracking.
