Solutions for Aerospace
Polycast® Cell Cast Acrylic
Delivering aircraft transparencies for the demanding aerospace industry.
Polycast® cell cast acrylic has been trusted by the aerospace industry for over 40 years. Ideal for aircraft windows and transparencies, Polycast® offers superior optical quality, flexibility, and consistency. It’s available in even tighter tolerances than standard MIL SPEC (+/- .020" at less than .250"; +/- 10% at greater than .250"), as well as in standard thicknesses.
We consistently surpass stringent industry standards, including the strict quality levels required by Military Material Specifications. We are the principal supplier to the United States aerospace industry of acrylic sheet meeting U.S. Military Material Specifications MIL-PRF-5425, MIL-PRF-8184, and MIL-PRF-25690.
Royalite® Fire Rated Sheet
The trusted solution for aircraft cabin interiors—for decades.
From seats, trays, bulkheads and window shades to lavatory parts, galley carts and flooring — Royalite® is as versatile as it is strong. Ideal for laminating, fabricating and machining everything from seat parts and bulkhead laminates to monitor shrouds, window shades and tray tables, Royalite® is the perfect material for most aircraft interior requirements. Royalite®’s high tensile strength and stiffness offer superior impact resistance, and it’s formulated to resist staining, fading, cracking and crazing caused by harsh cleansers.
Royalite® meets heat deflection temperature requirements and has excellent formability for uniform wall thicknesses. It’s available in 0.028" – 0.375" thicknesses and a variety of popular surface textures and designs. The available materials compliant with FAR 25.853(a), FAR 25.853(b) and FAR 25.853(d) aviation ratings are R52, R57, R60, and R503.
The RoyalAero™ product line offers aircraft manufacturers a complete range of FAA-compliant, aerospace-rated thermoplastic sheet products engineered to meet exact formability and ductility specifications. Materials include R12, R20, R52, R57, R503, R60, R105, R552, R557, and R755.
