RS PRO Transparent Polycarbonate PC Rod 1 m Length 10 mm Diameter Engineering Grade Material 438-6443

RS PRO 438-6443 Transparent Polycarbonate PC Rod is a high-quality engineering grade polycarbonate rod designed for industrial applications requiring toughness and fire resistance. This transparent rod measures 1 meter in length and has a diameter of 10 mm, combining lightweight characteristics with reliable mechanical properties.

The polycarbonate material offers excellent impact strength and flexibility, with an elongation of 100%, making it virtually unbreakable in typical industrial use cases. Its hardness is rated at 100 Ball Indentation, ensuring it withstands mechanical stresses.

With a maximum operating temperature of 140°C, the rod safely functions in environments involving moderate heat. It also meets the UL94 HB flammability rating, providing a basic level of fire safety compliance for industrial and manufacturing settings.

The rod’s water absorption rate is minimal at 0.36%, which reduces the risk of deformation or degradation in humid conditions. Its density of 1.2 g/cm³ contributes to ease of handling and installation in applications such as protective screens, machine guards, signage, illuminated signboards, and poster covers.

Although highly durable, the polycarbonate material is not UV resistant, therefore it is recommended for use in indoor environments or locations protected from direct sunlight exposure. The product is manufactured in Germany, assuring quality standards consistent with European engineering.

This polycarbonate PC rod serves key roles in mechanical, manufacturing, plastic processing, and electrical industries, providing a reliable solution for transparent structural and protective elements where strength and flame resistance are required.
