Polycarbonate is a sturdy, hard and transparent material. This polycarbonate sheet is 3mm thick and transparent in colour. This material is often used as a substitute for glass because it is just as clear and 250 times stronger. Add to that its self-extinguishing and fire-retardant properties and you have the perfect material for safety glazing. On delivery, they are provided with protective film on both sides. We saw the polycarbonate sheet for you for free.
Clear polycarbonate sheets are extremely resistant to high temperatures and UV radiation. The sheets do not yellow in the sun; this makes this material very suitable for outdoor applications. Clear polycarbonate is a bit more scratch-sensitive than glass. We therefore recommend that you polish the sheets to maintain clarity. Do you want to keep them clean and dust-free for a long time? Then clean the plates with an anti-static cleaner.
