Polycarbonate Sheet offers superior durability, unmatched design flexibility and structural integrity that easily surpasses laminated glass and acrylic alternatives. Polycarbonate sheet (Standard General-Purpose Glazing Grade) will transmit 86% of light. This product is UV stabilized, has a heat deflection temperature of 270°F at 264 PSI, and has a smoke density rating less than 75. This uncoated polycarbonate sheet is the standard grade for general purpose applications and can be used for economical protection against breakage or intrusion. A better insulator than glass, PC sheet contributes to lower energy costs.

Polycarbonate sheets can be cut using a variety of methods, depending on the thickness of the sheet and the tools available. Here are a few common methods: * **Scoring and snapping:** For thinner sheets, scoring with a utility knife and then snapping along the scored line can be effective. Multiple passes with the knife may be needed to create a deep enough score. * **Circular saw:** A circular saw with a fine-toothed blade designed for plastic can be used for thicker sheets. Make sure to support the sheet adequately to prevent vibration and chipping. A blade with a high tooth count will produce a cleaner cut. * **Jigsaw:** A jigsaw with a fine-toothed blade can also be used for cutting curves or intricate shapes in polycarbonate sheets. Again, proper support is crucial for a clean cut. * **Utility knife:** For very thin polycarbonate sheets, a sharp utility knife can be used. Secure the sheet firmly and make multiple passes with the knife to cut through the material. * **Laser cutter:** For precise and clean cuts, a laser cutter is an excellent option, especially for intricate designs. However, this method requires specialized equipment. Regardless of the method used, it's essential to wear appropriate safety gear, such as safety glasses and gloves, when cutting polycarbonate sheets. Also, ensure the work area is well-ventilated.
