Polycarbonate Sheet
Lexan® and Makrolon®
Polycarbonate sheet is as clear as glass and 250 times stronger. It’s also 30 times stronger than acrylic sheet. It withstands natural forces like severe wind, hail and snow storms. Use in applications that require superior impact protection. Polycarbonate sheet is marketed under trade names such as Lexan® and Makrolon®.
Abrasion resistant polycarbonate can be special ordered for demanding glazing applications where high impact strength coupled with enhanced weatherability and superior abrasion resistance is required.
For applications requiring tough yet lightweight materials with proven resistance to physical and ballistic attack, polycarbonate laminates may be special ordered. The levels of protection range from containment rated security glazing to UL Level 3 bullet-resistant material capable of withstanding multiple rounds fired from high-powered handguns.
Polycarbonate sheet may be cut using most types of conventional power saws utilizing triple chip blade designs. Be sure to leave the protective masking intact when cutting to prevent marring of the surface.
Polycarbonate may be cleaned in accordance with the manufacturer’s specifications with the following cleaning agents:
Formula 409™
Top Job™, Joy™
Palmolive Liquid™
Windex D with Ammonia D™
