Lexan Textured Rolls
Lexan Textured Rolls are manufactured from high-quality polycarbonate resin and engineered to deliver exceptional strength, optical performance, and long-term durability. The textured surface enhances appearance while reducing glare, fingerprints, and surface scratches, making these rolls an excellent choice for applications requiring both functionality and visual appeal.
One of the primary advantages of Lexan Textured Rolls is their outstanding impact resistance. Polycarbonate is virtually unbreakable compared to glass and significantly stronger than acrylic, making it ideal for protective glazing, machine guards, equipment covers, and safety barriers operating in demanding environments.
The textured finish provides effective light diffusion while minimizing reflections and glare. This makes Lexan Textured Rolls a preferred material for lighting fixtures, LED diffusers, skylights, partitions, decorative panels, and display applications where controlled light transmission is important.
The material also offers excellent dimensional stability, UV resistance (when UV-protected grades are used), and weatherability, allowing reliable indoor and outdoor performance. Lexan Textured Rolls can be thermoformed, cold bent, cut, drilled, routed, and fabricated into custom components without sacrificing strength or appearance.
In addition to mechanical durability, the material provides good electrical insulation and excellent resistance to impact over a broad temperature range. Its lightweight construction simplifies installation while reducing transportation and handling costs.
Because of their combination of impact strength, optical clarity, textured finish, and fabrication versatility, Lexan Textured Rolls are widely used in architectural construction, transportation, electronics, industrial manufacturing, retail displays, signage, and lighting applications.
What is Lexan polycarbonate film?
Lexan, polycarbonate film is a General Electric product known for its unique combination of outstanding properties. Heat resistance, high clarity, and dimensional stability make Lexan the standard for applications such as reverse screen printing, pressure sensitive nameplates, membrane switch panels, and instrumentation. It is stocked in sheets and rolls in clear, matte, and textured film. It is also available with or without polystick masking.
