Detailed Engineering Specifications

Precision-manufactured to tight tolerances, this 0.468" thick polycarbonate stock sheet measures 28" in width and 41" in length. Polycarbonate exhibits a high tensile strength, excellent impact resistance (over 250 times that of glass), and a wide operating temperature range (-40°F to 250°F). Its inherent UV resistance and optical clarity make it suitable for applications requiring long-term outdoor exposure and visual inspection. Ideal for protective glazing, machine guards, and components within temperature-sensitive systems.
