Polycarbonate nameplates are manufactured from a group of thermoplastics called polycarbonates. Due to their high mechanical strength, toughness and clarity polycarbonate nameplates can survive extreme environmental conditions such as high temperatures, chemical abrasions and corrosion. Polycarbonate nameplates, because they are manufactured from this highly resistant material, are perfectly suited for harsh indoor or outdoor environments. They can endure submersion in water and survive oily or dirty environments.
Polycarbonate nameplates are also known for their superior dimensional stability, optical clarity, printability and graphic design freedom. Thus, they are a great choice for graphic overlays.
Polycarbonate nameplates, while great for multi-color screenprinting, can also include other special features and finishes. They can have either clear or textured finishes. Use special adhesives. They can be embossed. Clear, tinted or dead front windows are available, as well as, either a matte or clear hard coated surface. With polycarbonate nameplates you are only limited to your custom application or imagination.
Also, Polycarbonate can be die cut, formed or glued. If your requirement is for a special shape, then Data Graphics, Inc. will be able to supply you with the polycarbonate nameplates that will fit your specific need or application.
Polycarbonates are not only used to produce polycarbonate nameplates. They are also used in the production of control panels, name tags, display plates, and decals. Polycarbonate nameplates are highly durable and extremely cost effective. Polycarbonate nameplates are ideal for nameplates on outdoor power equipment, appliances, cars, trucks and other vehicles as well.
Some polycarbonate grades are used in medical applications and can be sterilized. Even the cockpit canopy of the F-22 Raptor jet fighter is made from a piece of high optical quality polycarbonate. It is the largest piece of its type formed in the world.
Polycarbonate films used in the manufacturing of polycarbonate nameplates are available in a variety of thicknesses ranging from .005” to .030” depending upon the requirement or application.
