Polycarbonate Sheet, Clear, 1/8" x 12" W x 18" L (2)

COMMON QUESTIONS: Q: Is polycarbonate actually impact-resistant? A: Yes — polycarbonate delivers impact-resistant with 16 ft-lb/in notched impact strength. It will not shatter under normal impact loads — the standard choice for machine guards, safety shields. Q: Will polycarbonate work for a machine guard or safety shield? A: Yes — polycarbonate is the commonly used for machine guards, safety shields, and protective barriers precisely because of its combination of optical clarity and tough toughness. Q: Is polycarbonate UV stable for greenhouse or outdoor use? A: Standard polycarbonate provides moderate UV resistance but can yellow over time with prolonged direct sun exposure. For greenhouse panels and long-term outdoor use, specify a UV-coated or UV-stabilized grade for maximum longevity. At 250x the impact strength of glass and a tensile strength of 9,500 PSI, this 3mm clear sheet handles demanding applications where breakage simply isn't an option. It performs reliably from -40°F to 280°F, making it equally at home in cold storage environments and high-heat industrial settings. Engineers, fabricators, and DIYers rely on polycarbonate for machine guards, safety shields, greenhouse panels, skylights, and riot barriers. It cuts cleanly with standard saws, drills without cracking, thermoforms readily, and bonds well with compatible adhesives — making it one of the most fabrication-friendly engineering plastics available. Each pack includes two 12" x 18" sheets ready for immediate use. All dimensions are held to +/- 0.010″

IMPACT RESISTANT & durable — Polycarbonate is impact-resistant with 9,500 PSI tensile strength, making it ideal for machine guards and safety shields. Withstands -40°F to 280°F service temperatures without cracking, warping, or shattering under thermal stress. PRECISE DIMENSIONS, PACK OF 2 — Each sheet measures 0.122" (1/8") thick x 12" wide x 18" long, held to +/-0.010" tolerance for consistent fit. Pack of 2 sheets included; combined weight approximately 2.52 lbs. Nominal 1/8" thickness delivers excellent rigidity-to-weight ratio for structural glazing, guards, and panel fabrication projects. VERSATILE INDUSTRIAL & COMMERCIAL APPLICATIONS — Engineered for machine guards, safety shields, greenhouse panels, skylights. Optical clarity maintains light transmission for glazing and display applications where visibility and impact protection are both required. EASY TO FABRICATE & MACHINE — Cut cleanly with a table saw, circular saw, or score-and-snap method using standard carbide-tipped blades. Drills, mills, and thermoforms readily with conventional shop tools. Bonds with IPS Weld-On or polycarbonate-compatible adhesives. Remove protective masking film before forming. Compatible with common plastic fabrication techniques for both professional and hobbyist use. PRECISION TOLERANCES & QUALITY — Dimensions held to +/- 0.010" ensuring consistent, precise fit for fabrication and engineering applications.
