Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard cutting tools not designed for polycarbonate.Employ carbide-tipped blades or specialized polycarbonate cutting tools to prevent chipping and cracking.
Over-tightening fasteners, leading to stress cracking.Use washers and avoid excessive torque when fastening; allow for thermal expansion.

Common Applications

  • Protective shielding for electrical equipment
  • High-impact light diffusers
  • Machine guards in electrical enclosures

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid prolonged exposure to UV radiation without a protective coating, as it can cause yellowing and degradation.
  • Polycarbonate can be susceptible to crazing or cracking when exposed to certain aggressive chemicals; consult a chemical compatibility chart.
