Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard cutting tools not designed for plastics, leading to chipping or melting.Utilize specialized polycarbonate cutting blades or saws with fine teeth and proper feed rates to achieve clean, smooth edges.
Drilling holes too close to edges or without proper support, causing cracking.Maintain adequate edge distance for drilled holes and consider using pilot holes or specialized drill bits for plastics. Support the sheet during drilling.

Common Applications

  • Pneumatic Enclosures & Guards
  • Sight Glasses for Pneumatic Cylinders
  • Pressure Vessel Components

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid exposure to strong alkaline cleaning agents, as they can cause stress cracking.
  • Do not subject to continuous operating temperatures exceeding 120°C (248°F) without proper ventilation and heat dissipation.
