Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using incorrect cutting tools which can cause chipping or melting.Utilize specialized polycarbonate cutting tools or a CO2 laser for clean, precise cuts.
Over-tightening fasteners, leading to stress cracking.Employ washers and tighten fasteners to a snug, not excessive, torque, allowing for thermal expansion.

Common Applications

  • Pneumatic control panel enclosures
  • Sight glasses for pneumatic reservoirs
  • Protective guards for pneumatic actuators

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid prolonged exposure to strong alkaline solutions, which can degrade polycarbonate.
  • Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents not specifically recommended for polycarbonate.
