Clear Acrylic Sheets for Crafts

Clear acrylic sheets for crafts are transparent panels or sheets made from acrylic material that are specifically designed for use in various craft projects. Acrylic, also known as acrylic glass or plexiglass, is a durable and lightweight thermoplastic material with excellent optical clarity.

Clear acrylic sheets for crafts are popular among crafters and hobbyists due to their versatility and ease of use. These sheets can be easily cut, shaped, and formed to create a wide range of craft items, including jewelry, keychains, ornaments, picture frames, display cases, and other decorative pieces.

Craft-grade acrylic sheets typically come in various thicknesses, allowing for customization based on the specific requirements of the project. They offer the advantage of being transparent, allowing light to pass through and enhancing the visibility of the crafted items. The optical clarity of clear acrylic sheets ensures that the colors and details of the crafts are visible and vibrant.

Clear acrylic sheets for crafts are widely available in craft stores, online marketplaces, and specialty suppliers. They are an excellent choice for craft enthusiasts seeking a versatile and visually appealing material to bring their creative ideas to life.

How to choose clear acrylic sheets for crafts ?

We provide a diverse selection of acrylic sheets, offering two distinct types: cell-cast and extruded. Both types are derived from chemical reactions between monomers and catalysts, each possessing its own unique characteristics and features. Our collection includes glossy, matte, and textured sheets, making it easier than ever to find the perfect material for your specific application. Moreover, we offer a range of customization services to accommodate any specific requirements you may have.

Cell-cast acrylic sheet

Cell-cast acrylic is the highest quality option available, delivering exceptional optical clarity and thermal stability. The labor-intensive process involves blending liquid ingredients in glass molds. While it may be more expensive, casting yields a more rigid, durable, and uniform product, making it ideal for large structures and installations. In addition, cast acrylic exhibits superior chemical resistance compared to extrusion, making it well-suited for applications involving fragrances, lotions, or other solvents. Thick cast acrylic is particularly suitable for situations where standard sheets are inadequate. These extra-thick, crystal-clear sheets are distortion-free and excellent for machining.

Extruded acrylic sheet

Extruded acrylic is produced by continuously pushing acrylic mass through a mold, resulting in an impact-resistant and heterogeneous product. Its properties can vary depending on the direction of extrusion. Extruded acrylic is more affordable and dimensionally stable than cast acrylic, making it a cost-effective solution for general fabrication and a wide range of applications. Due to its malleability and low melting point, this type of acrylic is well-suited for laser cutting, routing, polishing, cementing, and thermoforming. It is also less prone to contamination from dirt, lint, or particulates during the production process. Furthermore, it exhibits excellent resistance to yellowing caused by prolonged sun exposure, thanks to its ability to withstand ultraviolet light degradation. Our transparent acrylic sheets maintain their original color and appearance despite exposure to cold, heat, humidity, and sunlight. You can confidently use extruded sheets for greenhouse glazing, shed or garage window installations, and various indoor applications.

How to care for and clean craft acrylic sheets ?

Using harsh cleaners such as ammonia or window cleaners can potentially cause damage and result in crazing on acrylic/plexiglass sheets. However, these sheets are highly durable and require minimal maintenance. If any adhesive or sticky substance accidentally comes into contact with the surface, it is crucial to use products specifically designed for acrylic care and cleaning. It's worth noting that acrylic without additives possesses natural UV resistance. Some manufacturers include stabilizers to enhance UV protection for prolonged exposure to radiation. When utilizing these UV enhanced materials, it is important to handle them with care in order to maintain their longevity.

Plexiglass acrylic sheets exhibit water-resistant properties, making them suitable for outdoor applications. They are commonly used for windows in submarines and cars. Additionally, they play a significant role in construction, engineering, outdoor displays and signage, and even underwater camera lenses. Moreover, they are considered to be dishwasher safe when used as substitutes for glass in dishware and kitchenware.

Can I ask for Cut-To-Size clear acrylic sheets for crafts ?

Yes, of couse.

Our standard cut-to-size length and width tolerances are typically more accurate than the +/-1/8" specified. However, if you require even greater precision, please don't hesitate to reach out to our team. For our white acrylic sheet thickness, the tolerances are within +/-10%, with variations throughout the sheet usually less than 5%. Please refer to the nominal and actual sheet thicknesses provided below:

  • 1/8" = 3mm = 0.118"

  • 3/16" = 4.5mm = 0.177"

  • 1/4" = 5.5mm = 0.217"
