Description
Acrylic – Thick Gauge Sheets (Heavy-Duty Cast or Extruded Acrylic)
Thick gauge acrylic sheets are durable, crystal-clear plastic panels ideal for heavy-duty applications that require strength, clarity, and rigidity. Available in both cast and extruded forms, thick acrylic offers excellent weather resistance, chemical stability, and high impact strength. These sheets are often used as a lightweight alternative to glass in structural, protective, or architectural projects where a thicker profile is required.
