Cast Acrylic Sheet Thickness Tolerance

Extruded plexiglass acrylic sheets have a higher tolerance when heated or bent and are typically more malleable than cast plexiglass acrylic sheets.

Cast acrylic sheet thickness tolerance.

Please refer to nominal and actual sheet thicknesses below. Whilst cast acrylic sheets tend to have a greater variance on thickness tolerance as much as 30 on thickness. Available in thicknesses of 060 to 4 250. Furthermore the ability to colour the clear mma monomer by using master batch pigments allows for.

Exact thickness tolerances will vary by manufacturer. It stands up to outdoor use better than polycarbonate and maintains clarity over time. Thickness tolerances for acrylic sheet here are the tolerances on the thickness of the acrylic sheets that we offer. These cast acrylic sheets bars and cubes are often fabricated into tanks see through barrier panels and light fixture lenses.

Acrylite cast gp acrylic sheet is manufactured according to iso 7823 1 plastics poly methyl methacrylate sheets types dimensions and characteristics. Textured sheet sheet is available with a matte gl 15 finish in clear and colors. This would mean a 1 00 thick sheet could be from 80 1 20 thick within the same sheet and still be within the factory tolerance materials within a factory tolerance can not be returned. Please call us at 858 560 1551 with any questions.

Sizes 1 16 3 8 are the extruded sheets and the 1 2 3 4 and 1 are the cast sheets. Iso 7823 1 provides thickness tolerances up to 25 mm. This material is scratch and uv resistant. It generally is the best thickness consistency softest sheet easy to glue best for chemical bonding and the standard material for displays replacement windows and some signage applications.

These are general guidelines for thickness tolerances on plexiglass acrylic sheets. These sheets vary more than any other plastic and can be 20 or more. Beyond 25 mm acrylite is cast to a corporate thickness specifications. What are the tolerances for plexiglas g acrylic sheet thickness length and width flatness.

As manufactured the flatness tolerance of plexiglas g sheet depends on the long dimension. Preshrunk sheet sheet that is thermally preshrunk but does not meet mil p 5425. As an example cast acrylic sheet is poured between 2 sheets of glass. This allowance is based on astm d 4802 section 5 6 1.

Cast acrylic which is comparable to lucite and plexiglas acrylic is easier to machine than extruded acrylic.
