Clear Scratch- and UV-Resistant Cast Acrylic Tubes
- Color: Clear
- Temperature Range: 0° to 150° F
- Tensile Strength: 10,000-11,250 psi (Good)
- Impact Strength: 0.3-0.4 ft.-lbs./in. (Poor)
- Hardness: Rockwell M94-M100 (Hard)

Fabricate containers, tanks, and lenses for light fixtures with these scratch- and UV-resistant cast acrylic tubes. Cast acrylic, which is comparable to Lucite and Plexiglas® Acrylic, is easier to machine than extruded acrylic. This material stands up to outdoor use better than polycarbonate and maintains clarity over time.
Chemical-Resistant Cellular Glass Pipe Insulation
Very rigid with a 0% water absorption rate, this insulation is unaffected by corrosive environments, organic solvents, and most acids. It is typically used in chemical-processing systems and underground lines. Insulation is flame resistant, meeting ASTM E84 0/0 for flame and smoke. Seal with tape (sold separately). Outdoor and underground use require metal jacketing (sold separately).
