Thin Gauge Polycarbonate Sheets


Note: The sheet sizes, colors, thicknesses and products available on our website are just a fraction of what's available at a TAP Plastics store. Visit us Monday through Saturday to see what we have in stock. 

If you need thin plastic sheets that are easily formable yet still offer excellent impact and chemical resistance, RowTec polycarbonate films will provide it. They were created as graphic arts film for drafting and printing but have many other uses, including protective window coverings, packaging, crafts and model making, templates, and cosplay.

At TAP Plastics, you can order one thin polycarbonate sheet or purchase them in bulk for DIY and industrial projects. The sheets we sell online have a gloss finish and come in standard sizes. Contact us if you need a custom quote on larger orders or want to inquire about other sheet sizes and finishes.

Why Use Thin Polycarbonate Panels

Our thin-gauge polycarbonate sheets offer superior performance in applications that require superior optical, thermal, mechanical and electrical characteristics. They are the highest quality graphic arts films. These films are easily printed without special inks or need for pre-treatment and handle superbly in die cutting, embossing, thermoforming, hot stamping and many other fabrication processes.

Our polycarbonate films deliver superior clarity, dimensional stability, impact resistance and dielectric properties. A shatterproof Lexan polycarbonate sheet is up to 250 times stronger than a glass sheet of the same thickness while being lighter and easier to handle. The panels also have excellent light transmission and refraction while resisting haze and yellowing.

They can be used in a variety of applications, including instrument panel overlays, membranes with graphic panels, decals, labels, backlit displays, menu boards, medical applications, dial indicators, scales, thermoformed parts, cold-embossed parts, die-cut items and coating applications. These applications cover a wide industry base. Polycarbonate sheets are used in automotive, appliance, computer, electronic, medical and display applications.

Get Thin-Gauge Plastic Panels for Any Project

As a leading retail plastic supplier, TAP Plastics will help you get the right polycarbonate sheet that is cost-efficient and long-lasting. Each gloss sheet comes in 0.005, 0.01, 0.015, 0.02 and 0.03-inch thicknesses (5 to 30 mils). The sheet size is two feet by four feet with pricing dependent on thickness. The film has a protective masking that you will need to remove before forming and installing.

When you stop at a TAP Plastics store, you can find many other available surface textures and sheet thicknesses. Large polycarbonate rolls and abrasion-resistant panels are available, and we can do custom-cut clear plastic sheeting in-store, too, giving you a perfectly sized thin polycarbonate plastic board.
