Detailed Engineering Specifications

Built to exacting engineering tolerances, this 0.157" thick polycarbonate stock sheet offers superior dimensional stability and consistency. The inherent properties of polycarbonate, including its high impact strength (Izod impact resistance > 600 J/m) and broad operating temperature range (-100°C to 120°C), make it suitable for environments requiring robust containment and reliable performance under thermal cycling. Its excellent optical clarity (transparency > 90%) also facilitates visual monitoring in enclosed systems. Standard sheet dimensions are 33" x 47".
