Clear Scratch- and UV-Resistant Cast Acrylic Sheets, Bars, and Cubes
These cast acrylic sheets, bars, and cubes are often fabricated into tanks, see-through barrier panels, and light fixture lenses. Cast acrylic, which is comparable to Lucite and Plexiglas® Acrylic, is easier to machine than extruded acrylic. The material is scratch resistant and stands up to outdoor use better than polycarbonate. It maintains clarity over time and won't weaken from exposure to UV, though the pigment in colored acrylic will fade over time when exposed to direct sunlight.

Widely used for vehicle interiors and equipment housings, these sheets maintain their physical properties after thermoforming. They resist many corrosive chemicals and cleaning solutions. One side is smooth; the other side has a coarse texture to mask scratches, scuffs, and fingerprints. This material is comparable to Kydex.

Penlights
Small enough to fit in your pocket, these slim flashlights have built-in LEDs that last longer, are more efficient, and generate less heat than other light technologies. The bodies are knurled for a slip-resistant grip. All penlights were tested and rated to ANSI/NEMA FL 1 standards.
Penlights with a flood beam are especially good for close-up tasks and inspection work. Penlights with a spot beam have a bright center for long-distance illumination.
Adjustable-beam penlights change from a wide floodlight to a narrow spotlight with a twist of the head.
Styles G and H can operate on either the included rechargeable batteries or standard AAA alkaline batteries.
Note: Battery life is significantly reduced when flashlights are used at the high-beam light setting.
