Detailed Engineering Specifications

Engineered for reliability and performance, this 0.439" thick Polycarbonate stock sheet boasts exceptional durability and a low coefficient of friction. Measuring 32" in length and 28" in width, it is manufactured from high-grade polycarbonate resin, renowned for its outstanding impact resistance (exceeding 150 J/m Izod impact strength) and excellent dimensional stability across a wide temperature range (-135°C to 120°C). Its intrinsic lubricity reduces wear and friction in dynamic applications, ideal for components such as bearings, slides, and wear pads where reduced maintenance and extended operational life are critical.
