PRODUCT DESCRIPTION:

Acrylic sheet is a continuously processed product which exhibits outstanding optical properties, uniform thickness and a low stress level. Acrylic sheet is a lightweight, weather-resistant thermo plastic. It can be easily fabricated, formed, finished, cemented, painted and decorated.

  • Economical
  • Weather resistant
  • Rigidity, strength and stiffness
  • Greater safety than annealed glass
  • Meets building codes ICBO, BOCA and SBCC
  • Clear, colorless, has a luminous transmittance of 92%
  • Lightweight: half the weight of glass and 43% the weight of aluminum
  • Lucite ® CP10 year warranty against yellowing
  • Optix 10 year limited warranty

SIZES: Thickness range from .060" to .472"
Standard Sizes - 48" x 120", 48" x 96", 51" x 100", 54" x 108",
