What You Need to Know
Frequently Asked Questions
Is cast or extruded acrylic better for heavy use?
Cast acrylic is more resistant to scratching and can be polished to clarity, making it better for high-wear applications. Extruded acrylic, on the other hand, cuts straight and is typically cheaper—suitable for large displays or backing.
Cast is preferred when optical clarity and finish matter; extruded works well for basic use, where thickness consistency matters more than visual clarity.
For heavy-duty needs like protective panels or structural dividers, cast is often the smarter long-term investment due to its strength and polishable surface.
How do I avoid cracking when fitting acrylic?
Pre-drilling with correct drill bits, using backing boards and avoiding overtightening screws reduces the risk of cracking. Acrylic expands with heat, so leave small expansion gaps and use plastic washers.
Bracket spacing should be under 300 mm for heavier panels. Clamping methods also matter: use rubber-lined clamps or padded grips when securing acrylic for cutting or drilling to avoid stress marks.
Adding cushioning at contact points and handling sheets with clean gloves can also prevent micro-fractures or scratches that weaken over time.
How long do acrylic sheets last outdoors?
Good-quality acrylic panels resist UV and weather exposure for 10–20 years without yellowing or crazing. Cast acrylic performs better over time, while extruded can degrade faster.
For outdoor use, choose UV-resistant rated sheets and install with sealants or gaskets to prevent moisture damage.
Regular cleaning helps maintain clarity and lifespan, especially in coastal environments with salt spray or UV intensity. Avoid using harsh cleaners like ammonia-based products which can dull or weaken the surface over time. Strategic placement in shaded areas also prolongs performance.
