10187 Styrene Clear 1.1mm 1200mm x 800mm 1 Sheet

Shatter-resistant styrene sheets

UV stabilizer in the styrene absorbs many of the damaging UV wavelengths in natural and artificial light. In absorbing the UV, the panels themselves may eventually discolour. This styrene is not optical grade.

To size styrene - score it heavily, using a knife, a scoring tool or a wall cutter. Place it with the scored line up, just over the edge of the workbench and apply pressure - it will break with a bang.

Styrene is a great alternative to glass as it doesn't shatter during transit. It is also much lighter than glass making it easier to handle and transport the frame.

Clear styrene protected on both sides with a peel-off polythene film. Styrene is the popular name for vinyl benzene.
