Engineering Grade Polycarbonate Sheet

Engineering Grade Polycarbonate

Henry Gallacher offers a selection of engineering grade polycarbonate known for its outstanding impact resistance, excellent dimensional stability, and minimal moisture uptake. This material is favoured for its superior heat deflection, electrical insulation, and mechanical performance. We can supply custom-cut sheets tailored to your precise specifications.

Ideal for machining into intricate parts that demand the robust qualities of engineering grade polycarbonate, this material is available in thicker gauges suitable for demanding applications. This contrasts with standard polycarbonate, which is typically employed for protective guards and screens.

Please be aware that this grade of polycarbonate is not optically transparent.

Applications

Commonly utilised within the electrical sector for its insulating capabilities, it also finds application in safety engineering, automotive, and medical fields. Its technical attributes make it more appropriate for functional rather than aesthetic purposes, given its lack of optical clarity.

Key Features

  • Operating temperature range: -40°C to +115°C, with short-term tolerance up to +140°C.
  • Exceptional impact resistance.
  • Low moisture absorption.
  • Opaque, not optically clear.
  • High rigidity and stiffness.
