Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using a dull or incorrect blade for cutting, leading to chipping or cracking.Employ a sharp, fine-tooth blade specifically designed for plastic or polycarbonate. Ensure proper saw speed to prevent overheating and melting.
Over-tightening fasteners, causing stress cracks to form around drilled holes.Drill holes slightly larger than the fastener diameter and use washers to distribute pressure. Avoid overtightening; secure fasteners firmly but not excessively.

Common Applications

  • Custom Pneumatic Enclosures
  • Machine Guarding for Pneumatic Equipment
  • Protective Shields for Cylinders and Valves

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Always wear appropriate safety glasses and gloves when cutting or handling polycarbonate.
  • Avoid prolonged exposure to UV radiation unless the sheet is specifically UV-stabilized, as this can lead to degradation.
