Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard fasteners without proper spacing or washers, leading to stress concentration and potential cracking.Utilize fasteners specifically designed for plastic applications, incorporating oversized washers to distribute load and ensure adequate hole clearance.
Cutting or machining the polycarbonate without proper cooling, causing melting and gumming of the tool.Employ high-speed steel or carbide tooling with adequate chip clearance and use a coolant or lubricant specifically formulated for plastic machining to prevent overheating.

Common Applications

  • Machine guards and protective enclosures
  • Custom measuring jigs and fixtures
  • Inspection windows and viewing panels

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid prolonged exposure to UV radiation without appropriate UV-resistant coatings, as this can lead to yellowing and embrittlement.
  • Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents that can damage the polycarbonate surface and compromise its optical clarity.
