Plastics 2000 Lexan Sheet – Polycarbonate – .118" – 1/8" Thick, Clear, 12" x 12" Nominal
Description
Polycarbonate sheet combines high impact and temperature resistance with
optical clarity and can be utilized for secondary glazing behind existing
glazing for economical protection against breakage or intrusion. Polycarbonate
sheet can be cut, sawn, drilled and milled by using standard workshop
equipment without the risk of cracking and breakage and is therefore an
excellent candidate for fabricating a wide range of indoor applications such
as machine guards etc. Polycarbonate sheet can be easily thermoformed into
complex parts while retaining its excellent properties necessary for demanding
applications such as vandal proof street furniture. Polycarbonate sheet may be
decorated using a wide variety of modern techniques such as painting and
screen printing. Unlike most thermoplastics, polycarbonate can undergo large
plastic deformations without cracking or breaking. As a result, it can be
processed and formed at room temperature using sheet metal techniques, such as
forming bends on a brake. Even for sharp angle bends with a tight radius, no
heating is generally necessary. This makes it valuable in prototyping
applications where transparent or electrically non-conductive parts are
needed, which cannot be made from sheet metal Light transmission Transparent
Polycarbonate sheet have excellent light transmission, dependent of thickness
between 84 – 87%. Fire performance Polycarbonate sheet has good fire behavior
characteristics. Lexan sheet does not contribute significantly to the spread
of fire or to the generation of toxic gases. For details please contact your
local sales office.
