Acrylic Clear Tubes

Description

Acrylic Clear Tubes are made from high-quality polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA), a transparent thermoplastic known for its clarity, strength, and versatility. These tubes offer excellent optical properties, making them a popular choice for applications requiring transparency and durability. Acrylic Clear Tubes are lightweight, impact-resistant, and easy to fabricate, making them suitable for a wide range of industrial, commercial, and creative uses.

Benefits of Acrylic Clear Tubes

• High Clarity: Acrylic Clear Tubes provide exceptional transparency, similar to glass, but with greater durability and safety.
• Impact Resistance: Unlike glass, acrylic tubes are highly resistant to impact, reducing the risk of breakage.
• Lightweight: Acrylic is much lighter than glass, making it easier to handle and install.
• UV Resistance: Acrylic Clear Tubes are resistant to UV radiation, making them suitable for outdoor applications without yellowing or degrading over time.
• Easy Fabrication: These tubes can be easily cut, drilled, and shaped to meet specific project requirements.

Applications

• Display and Signage: Acrylic Clear Tubes are ideal for creating eye-catching displays, signage, and exhibition stands due to their clarity and durability.
• Lighting: Used in LED lighting, light diffusers, and decorative lighting applications for their excellent light transmission properties.
• Laboratory Equipment: Commonly used in lab settings for test tubes, sample holders, and other transparent equipment.
• Aquariums and Terrariums: Their clarity and strength make acrylic tubes perfect for custom aquariums and terrariums.
• Architectural and Interior Design: Used in architectural models, partitions, and decorative elements for their aesthetic appeal and versatility.

Specifications:

• Material: Cast Acrylic (PMMA) – Known for its superior optical clarity, durability, and resistance to UV radiation and weathering.
• Colour: Crystal Clear – Provides excellent transparency, making it ideal for applications where visibility and light transmission are critical.
• Diameter Range: Customisable from small to large diameters to suit a wide range of applications, from precision components to large-scale installations.
• Wall Thickness: Available in various thicknesses (e.g., 1mm to 10mm or more) to meet specific strength and durability requirements for different uses.
• Length: Standard lengths are available, but custom lengths can be produced to fit unique project needs.
• Surface Finish: Smooth, polished finish for maximum clarity and aesthetic appeal.
• Temperature Resistance: Can withstand temperatures from -40°C to +80°C, making it suitable for both indoor and outdoor use.
• UV Resistance: UV-stabilized to prevent yellowing or degradation when exposed to sunlight, ensuring long-term clarity and performance.

Care and Maintenance:

• Cleaning: Clean with a soft, lint-free cloth and a mild soap solution. Avoid using abrasive materials or harsh chemicals that could scratch or damage the surface.
• Avoid Solvents: Do not use solvents like acetone, alcohol, or ammonia-based cleaners, as they can cause cracking or clouding.
• Polishing: To maintain the clarity and shine of acrylic tubes, use a plastic polish or acrylic cleaner for occasional touch-ups.
• Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight or heat sources to prevent warping or surface damage.
• Handling: Handle with care to avoid scratches. Use gloves to prevent fingerprints and smudges during installation or fabrication.
