Light Diffusing Tuffak® LD Sheet is a highly UV stable polycarbonate product designed to provide superior light diffusion characteristics while maintaining high light transmission. The proprietary diffuser technology eliminates visible hot spots from pinpoint LED lights in typical flat and formed sign applications. The sheet is easy to form, fabricate and decorate and has excellent impact strength and dimensional stability. Tuffak® LD is offered with a ten (10) year limited product warranty against breakage. The terms of the warranty, are available upon request.

General Purpose

Tuffak® LUMEN XT Sheet is a translucent polycarbonate product with a textured surface on one side specifically designed for lighting lenses. It features a unique combination of high light diffusion and high light transmission through a combination of optimized surface texture and advanced diffuser technologies.

When compared to other light diffusing products such as glass and acrylic, Tuffak® Lumen XT Sheet has superior impact strength and toughness. Its higher flammability resistance and wider service temperature range provide an additional performance advantage over acrylic diffusers.

The wide range of standard diffusion levels as well as both a warm (LW) or a cool (LC) hue offers designers the flexibility to maximize light fixtures’ aesthetics and performance. Other surface textures are available for additional design options.

Applications for Tuffak® Lumen XT are Interior LED and conventional lighting fixtures. Product is available in 1/16” and 1/8” and carry Flammability rating of UL-94 V2.

Sunlife Polycarbonate Sheet

Sunlife Polycarbonate Sheet

TUFFAK® SL Prolonged exposure to the sun can weather even the most durable of surfaces. In the past, acrylic was often chosen for plastic glazing applications because of its inherent resistance to yellowing over time. But compared to polycarbonate, the relative brittleness of acrylic made its impact strength insufficient
for demanding, vandal resistant applications. To meet this need, Covestro developed TUFFAK® SL polycarbonate sheet. It offers the best of both worlds– the impact protection of TUFFAK® polycarbonate sheet and the UV resistance of acrylic. Utilizing advanced formulations combined with state-of-the-art extrusion technology, Covestro has created a tough, consistent quality product that will exhibit superior performance for years to come.

Performance Warranty: The performance of TUFFAK® SL polycarbonate sheet has been well documented through years of laboratory and field testing. In side-by- SunLife Polycarbonate Sheet Light Diffusing TUFFAK® LD Sheet is a highly UV stable polycarbonate product designed to provide superior light diffusion characteristics while maintaining high light transmission.

TUFFAK® LD is offered with a ten (10) year limited product warranty against breakage.The terms of the warranty, are available upon request. Light Diffusing Sheet side comparative testing under severe conditions, TUFFAK® SL polycarbonate sheet consistently outperformed competitive materials utilizing older technology. Materials were also tested in forms and bends well beyond recommended guidelines, proving that the integrity of SL, as well as its UV resistance, will not change if the sheet is bent or cold-formed. So conclusive was this testing that Covestro offers a limited warranty against excessive yellowing, loss of light transmission, and breakage.
