Fuerto® transparent polycarbonate round rods are transparent, highly impact-resistant round rods that are fire retardant and vandal-proof. The polycarbonate tubes are extruded from normal standard granulate and do not have a UV protective layer. Polycarbonate tubes are visually less pure than acrylic tubes, but on the other hand, they have a better fire certification (B1 according to the European standard) and are particularly impact resistant. PyraSied stocks polycarbonate rods in various diameters. The round rod of polycarbonate are optically not pure, the surface is rough and it has a bluish glow. These type of round rods are often used for technical applications in the industry due to its characteristics.
We can supply polycarbonate rods with diameters ranging from Ø 10 to 50 mm. PyraSied has acrylic round rods in XT acrylic and GS acrylic in diameters Ø 10 – 200mm directly available from stock. These rods can be ordered per full length (± 1 meter) and cut-to-size. With a custom piece, you will receive the remainder of the tube.
Polycarbonate round rods are mainly used for technical applications because of their impact resistance and the fire certification Bs1d0 according to EN13501-1. The tubes are mostly used in the lighting industry as a shield around light sources, but also in the machining industry. Rods of polycarbonate are very suitable to be used for machine parts.
