1mm Clear Polycarbonate Sheet
HSQY 1mm clear polycarbonate sheet is a thin solid PC panel designed for protective covers, printed panels, displays, equipment windows, fabricated components and selected thermoforming applications requiring high clarity and impact resistance.
The featured SKU is 1mm thick. The broader HSQY solid polycarbonate sheet range covers thicknesses from 1mm to 50mm, with a standard sheet size of 1220 × 2440mm and customizable length.
Available colors include clear, blue, green, opal, brown and grey, with customized colors available according to project requirements.
Compared with thicker PC panels, 1mm polycarbonate provides lower weight and greater flexibility, so it is better suited to light-duty protection, covers, printing, display and formed parts than to heavy structural guarding or large unsupported glazing.
HSQY also supports precision cutting, engraving, bending, punching, polishing, bonding, thermoforming, UV flatbed printing and screen printing according to project drawings and production requirements.

Why Choose 1mm Polycarbonate Sheet?
A 1mm solid polycarbonate sheet provides a different balance of weight, flexibility and rigidity than thicker PC panels.
| 1mm Sheet Characteristic |
Purchasing Consideration |
| Lower Weight |
Useful for covers, displays and fabricated components where panel weight should be minimized |
| Greater Flexibility |
Suitable for applications requiring easier bending or forming than thicker solid PC |
| Thin Profile |
Suitable for compact covers, printed panels, inserts and fabricated parts |
| High Visibility |
Clear PC can provide good visibility where transparent protection is required |

| Thermoforming |
Useful where thin formed components are required |
Used where greater finished wall thickness is needed |
Optical Clarity of 1mm Clear PC Sheet
Clear polycarbonate is widely used where visibility through the material is required. Optical performance depends on the exact resin grade, sheet thickness, surface quality, tint and any UV or functional coating.
The current HSQY product data does not publish a verified light-transmission value specifically for this 1mm SKU. Buyers requiring a defined optical specification should request the applicable technical data or approve a physical sample.
Haze, gloss and visual distortion should also be considered for printing, display, optical-window and inspection-panel applications.
Impact Resistance of Thin Polycarbonate Sheet
Polycarbonate is known for high impact resistance compared with many conventional transparent plastics and glazing materials.
However, impact performance is influenced by thickness. A 1mm PC sheet should not automatically be assumed to provide the same protective performance as a 5mm, 10mm or thicker panel.
If the sheet will be used as a safety guard, protective window or impact barrier, provide the required impact test, panel dimensions, frame support and applicable safety standard so the correct thickness can be evaluated.
1mm Polycarbonate Sheet for Printing and Displays
Thin clear PC sheet can be used for printed panels, display components, transparent graphics, signs and other converted products where the finished part needs more toughness than a conventional thin rigid plastic sheet.
HSQY lists UV flatbed printing and screen printing among its processing capabilities. Printing compatibility should be checked against the exact PC surface, ink system and curing process before bulk production.
| Printing Requirement |
Buyer Should Confirm |
| Printing Method |
UV flatbed, screen printing or other process |
| Ink System |
Ink compatibility with polycarbonate |
| Surface |
Required gloss, clarity and print-side condition |
| Post Processing |
Cutting, bending, forming or assembly after printing |
1mm Polycarbonate Sheet for Thermoforming
Thermoforming is listed among HSQY's PC processing capabilities. A 1mm starting sheet can be evaluated for thin formed covers, housings, panels and other fabricated components.
Forming performance depends on material grade, sheet drying, heating profile, mold geometry, draw depth and required finished wall thickness.
Provide the finished part drawing or mold dimensions when requesting material for thermoforming so the starting thickness can be evaluated against the final component design.
UV Protection for Outdoor Applications
General-purpose clear polycarbonate and UV-protected polycarbonate are different specifications.
If this 1mm sheet will be used outdoors, buyers should specify the required UV protection, exposure conditions, orientation and expected service environment rather than assuming every clear PC sheet has the same weathering performance.
Where scratch resistance is also required, confirm whether an abrasion-resistant or hard-coated PC grade is needed because UV protection and abrasion resistance are separate functions.
Key Features of 1mm Clear Polycarbonate Sheet
Thin Solid PC Construction: The featured 1mm thickness provides a thin solid polycarbonate format for lightweight covers, panels, displays and converted products.
High Clarity: Clear PC is suitable for applications requiring visibility. Exact light transmission and haze depend on material grade and surface quality.
Impact Resistance: Polycarbonate offers high toughness, although protective performance must be evaluated according to the actual 1mm thickness and installation conditions.
Low Weight: The thin gauge helps reduce finished-component weight for suitable covers, signs and fabricated products.
Flexible Fabrication: HSQY lists cutting, engraving, bending, punching, polishing, bonding, thermoforming and printing services.
Custom Colors and Lengths: The broader PC sheet program lists clear, blue, green, opal, brown, grey and customized colors with customizable length.
