Acrylic Rod in All Forms
Round, Triangle, Square, Hexagon, semicircular Acrylic Rod…
Top Supplier of Acrylic/Plexiglass Rods
Acrylic Rod is an excellent plastic rod, manufactured by extrusion or casting process, which is also called as “Plexiglass rod” or “Lucite rod“. It is a common substitute for the glass rod as it is crystal clear, lighter weight, more shatter-resistant, and easy to be bonded, fabricated, formed or CNC turned. Otherwise, acrylic rods can be clear, colored, fluorescent, and custom colors. The cross-section could be round, triangle, square, hexagon, semicircular, and custom shapes.
As a flexible plastic rod, the acrylic rod offers 15 times of impact strength more than the equivalent glass rod but half weight. Meantime, it has superior chemical resistance, UV resistance, and weather ability, therefore, the acrylic rod is suitable for both indoor and outdoor applications, for example, staircase banister spindle, light guide rods, acrylic curtain rods, acrylic dowel, acrylic drapery rod, and acrylic furniture, etc.
