PMMA · Rod · Square / rectangular
Acrylic Square & Rectangular Rods
Solid PMMA bar in square and rectangular sections. The flat faces make it far easier to bond, mount and register than round rod, which is why it is used for framing and structural display work.

How we make it hold up
Two process steps that do not show in a photograph and do not show in the box, but decide whether the part is still sound a year after you built it.
UV stabiliser and anti-ageing additive as standard
We run a UV stabiliser and an anti-ageing additive in our acrylic on every job, not as a priced option you have to know to ask for. PMMA is already the most weather-stable of the clear plastics; the additive package is what keeps it from yellowing at the edges over an outdoor service life.
