Abrasion Resistant Polycarbonate

HYZOD AR

PROVEN APPLICATIONS:

  • Flat architectural and transportation glazing
  • School, hospital and bus shelter glazing
  • Correctional and psychiatric facilities
  • Security applications
DESCRIPTION:
HYZOD AR abrasion and UV-resistant sheet offers glass-like surface hardness coupled with the impact strength of standard polycarbonate. Additionally, HYZOD AR offers enhanced resistance from yellowing and hazing for an extended service life in high profile architectural glazing. HYZOD AR is warranted for seven years against breakage, excessive yellowing, hazing and loss of light transmission.

  • Full seven-year warranty
  • Glass-like surface hardness
  • Hard coat for improved surface hardness
  • 250 times stronger than float glass
  • Stock sheet sizes or cut-to-size
  • Ultraviolet resistance and chemical protection

STANDARD SIZES: Thicknesses: 1/8" -1/2" Length: 96" Width: 48", 60", 72".

STANDARD COLORS: Clear, gray, bronze
