Cast acrylic sheet
ACRYLITE® GP acrylic sheet is a cell-cast acrylic sheet made to exacting standards. It offers excellent optical characteristics, thickness tolerances, lightstability, and low internal stress levels for consistent performance. In addition to colorless sheet, a wide range of transparent, translucent and opaque colors are also available.
ACRYLITE GP sheet is a lightweight, rigid thermoplastic material that has many times the breakage resistance of standard window pane glass. It is highly resistant to weather conditions. ACRYLITE GP sheet can be easily sawed, machined, thermoformed, and cemented. It is suitable for most commercial applications and is ultraviolet light absorbing up to approximately 360 nanometers.
ACRYLITE GP sheet is more impact-resistant than glass. If subjected to impact beyond the limit of its resistance, it does not shatter into small slivers but breaks into comparatively large pieces. ACRYLITE GP sheet meets the requirements of ANSI Z 97.1 for use as a Safety Glazing material in Buildings (for thicknesses 0.080" [2.0 mm] to 0.500" [ 1 2.7mm]).
Because of its unique properties, ACRYLITE GP acrylic sheet is ideal for a wide range of applications, such as:• Merchandising Displays • Security Glazing • Industrial and School Glazing• Lighting Fixture Diffusers • Aquariums • Shower Enclosures • Decorative Paneling • Hockey Rinks • Skylights • Signs
ACRYLITE GP sheet is available in thicknesses from .060" to 2" (1.5 mm to 50 mm) and in more than 40 standard sizes from 36" x 48" to 72" x 120" (1.83 m x 3.05 m).
Sheets can be furnished masked with paper or polyethylene film, or halfmasked. Custom colors can be made to order in quantity. ACRYLITE GP sheet is also available with a non-glare, matte surface as ACRYLITE®GP P-95 and ACRYLITE® GP DP-9 acrylic sheet. Both retain the same physical properties of standard ACRYLITE GP sheet with the addition of the matte surface.
