Installation Procedure

1. Accurately measure and mark cut lines on the polycarbonate sheet. 2. Utilize appropriate cutting tools (e.g., industrial saw with fine-tooth blade) for clean, precise cuts, minimizing stress on the material. 3. Smooth all cut edges using fine-grit sandpaper or a deburring tool to prevent stress concentrations and ensure safety.

Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard wood cutting blades, which can cause chipping and cracking.Employ specialized plastic cutting blades with a finer tooth pitch to ensure smooth, clean cuts without damaging the polycarbonate.
Over-tightening fasteners, leading to stress cracks around mounting holes.Use washers to distribute pressure and avoid overtightening screws or bolts. Consider oversized holes or slots for thermal expansion if necessary.

Common Applications
