Clear Plexiglass Acrylic Sheet, Transparent Plastic Sheet

Acrylic, also known as Plexiglass, is thermoplastics and often supplied in sheets as a lightweight or shatter-resistant alternative to glass. Clear Acrylic Sheets exhibit glass-like qualities—clarity, brilliance, and transparency—but at half the weight and many times the impact resistance of glass. It is easy to fabricate, bonds well with adhesives and solvents, and is easy to thermoform without loss of optical clarity.

Donghua mainly provide extruded acrylic sheet available in full sheets, cut-to-size sheets in various sizes, grades, and shapes.

DHUA Acrylic Sheet Is Easily Fabricated

Our versatile acrylic sheet can be easily cut, sawed, drilled, polished, bend, machined, thermoformed and cemented

Dimension Information

Standard Cut-to-Size length and width tolerances are +/-1/8″, but are typically more accurate. Please contact us if you need greater precision. Acrylic sheet thickness tolerances are +/- 10% and can vary throughout the sheet, but variations are typically less than 5%. Please refer to nominal and actual sheet thicknesses below.

• 0.06″ = 1.5mm
• 0.08″ = 2mm
• 0.098″ = 2.5mm
• 1/8″ = 3mm = 0.118″
• 3/16″ = 4.5mm = 0.177″
• 1/4″ = 5.5mm = 0.217″
• 3/8″ = 9mm = 0.354″

Translucent, Transparent or Opaque Colored Acrylic Plexiglass Avalilable 

·  Transparent Acrylic Plexiglass = Images can be viewed through sheet (like tinted glass)

·  Translucent Acrylic Plexiglass = Light & Shadows can be seen through Sheet.

·  Opaque Acrylic Plexiglass = Neither light nor images can be seen through the sheet.

Production Process

Extruded acrylic sheet is produced by an extrusion process. Acrylic resin pellets are heated to a molten mass which is continuously pushed through a die, the position of which determines the thickness of the sheet produced. Once through the die, the molten mass looses temperature and can be trimmed and cut to the required sheet sizes.
