Polycarbonate (Glazing Grade)
Standards: ISO 7391, EN 1096
PC Glazing Sheet (Polycarbonate for glazing) is a transparent, UV-stabilised polycarbonate sheet designed for roofing, canopies, skylights, machine guards and architectural glazing. 250× stronger than glass, virtually unbreakable. UV coating on one or both sides prevents yellowing. Available clear, bronze, grey and opal. NOT suitable for precision CNC machining — for machined parts, see PC Engineering Sheet.
Brand names: Palsun® (Palram), Tuffak® FA (Plaskolite — FDA compliant), Makrolon® Sheet (Covestro).
Note: Tuffak® FA is FDA compliant for food contact applications.
