Acrylic Sheets – Clear, Coloured & Bespoke Plastic Sheets

At Advanced Seals & Gaskets Ltd (ASG), we supply a wide range of high-quality acrylic sheets, also known as plexiglass or Polymethyl Methacrylate (PMMA). Our network of suppliers and material manufacturers allows us to offer acrylic sheets in clear, coloured, and speciality grades suitable for a variety of applications, from industrial components to display solutions.

Whether you need standard sheet sizes or custom-cut acrylic sheets, our in-house facilities can convert sheets into washers, pads, strips, or other components, supplied either plain or with self-adhesive finishes.

What Are Acrylic Sheets?

Acrylic sheets are a thermoplastic material, meaning they become soft and moldable when heated and solidify upon cooling. Known for their strength, flexibility, and transparency, acrylic sheets are a popular alternative to glass, offering similar visual properties with greater resistance to breakage.

Acrylic sheets are lightweight and resistant to corrosion, making them suitable for manufacturing washers, seals, and other components where durability is essential. They are available in a variety of grades to suit different applications, including general-purpose, abrasion-resistant, impact-resistant, ESD, and bulletproof.

Customers can purchase acrylic in sheet form for maximum flexibility or as pre-cut parts for immediate use.

    Why Use Acrylic Sheets?

    Acrylic sheets are ideal for applications where transparency, durability, and lightweight properties are required, but impact resistance is not a critical concern compared to materials such as polycarbonate. Common uses include:

    • Motorcycle helmet visors

    • Viewing ports for submersibles and aircraft

    • Signage, lettering, and displays

    • Casing for lights and electronic devices

    • Medical applications, including lenses and devices

    • Point of sale displays and protective screens

    Acrylic can be fabricated using laser cutting, die cutting, sawing, and thermoforming, allowing for complex and bespoke shapes. Its excellent chemical and weather resistance ensures it remains visually unchanged over time, even when used outdoors. FDA-approved grades of acrylic sheets make them suitable for food preparation and display applications.

    Advantages of Using Acrylic Sheets

    Using acrylic sheets offers a host of benefits:

    • Strong, lightweight alternative to glass

    • Excellent dimensional stability and resistance to weathering

    • High optical clarity for transparent applications

    • Easy to fabricate, machine, and cut to size

    • Bonds well with most adhesives

    • Safe for use in food and medical applications (FDA approved)

    • Resistant to corrosion, unlike metals

    Acrylic sheets are also effective for insulation, as they do not conduct heat or electricity, and their rigidity allows them to create tight seals in various industrial applications.
