Polycarbonate Coil

The Polycarbonate Coil is a range of flexible polycarbonate films. Available in 55 size variations, with thicknesses from 25 to 1000 microns, and widths up to 1270 mm, this versatile engineering plastic film comes in a broad selection of dimensions to suit many applications. Polycarbonate films combine high optical clarity, impact and temperature resistance, and electrical insulation properties. Potential uses for them include glazing, safety screens, medical devices and electrical insulation. With its combination of optical, mechanical, thermal and electrical properties, polycarbonate films have a wide range of industrial and scientific uses across many industries.
