Acrylic Sheets-Rods-Pipes & Tubes

Acrylic rods, pipes and sheets are completely transparent and exhibit great resistance to breakage. Acrylic is an excellent material to use in place of glass for windows, skylights, doors, partitions, etc. Acrylic materials withstand exposure to light from fluorescent lamps without darkening or deteriorating. Acrylic ultimately will discolor, however, when exposed to high-intensity UV light.

Acrylic fabrication is easy, as it can be sawed with fine tooth blades, drilled with plastic drills, sanded and polished. Also, acrylic can be cemented with acrylic cement. Acrylic applications include inspection windows, sight gauges, windshields, meter faces, protective covers, safety shields, tanks, desk tops, displays, trays, and chair pads.
