Polycarbonate sheets can be used for a variety applications, especially those heavy-duty applications that require added strength needed in a plastic sheet product. Textured polycarbonate can be used for privacy glazing, light diffusers, shower doors, commercial applications, DIY projects, and other demanding applications. Polycarbonate can be formed and machined, including drilling holes, sawing and routing.
Our pebble textured polycarbonate sheets have a texture finish on one side and a smooth finish on the other side. These sheets are translucentTranslucent sheets allow light to pass through, but are not transparent. Shapes cannot be seen in detail. and do not have a masking on both sides of the panel.
We carry pebble textured polycarbonate sheets in a variety of pre-cut sizes to satisfy the creative needs of many projects. We can also cut to size.
Key Characteristics of Pebble Textured Polycarbonate:
The Term lexan is commonly used to describe polycarbonate. Actual name brand will depend on current stock.
