1" black in practice

Opaque stock blocks light entirely, so at 1" the decision is structural and visual rather than optical — you are choosing how solid the piece needs to feel and look.

This is heavy plate. It behaves like a block: it can be machined, polished on the edge and stood on its own, and both the weight and the price scale accordingly, so size it deliberately.

In a laser: pigment absorbs the beam, so this cuts on a CO2 machine and on a diode, but 1" is beyond what a desktop diode will get through — treat it as CO2 stock.

1" black (colour 2025) runs $38.53 per square foot at this gauge and weighs about 6.24 lb per square foot, so a 24″ × 48″ piece comes to roughly 49.9 lb — worth knowing before you size a panel someone has to lift or ship.

Why 1" black acrylic?

A thick, block-like sheet. At a full inch, acrylic reads as a solid, weighty slab — a favorite for display blocks, awards, sign bases, and statement tabletops. Polished edges on 1″ stock have a distinctive depth to them.

About Black acrylic

Black 2025 is deep, glossy, fully opaque black — the mirror-finish counterpart to our black matte. It gives a rich, reflective, high-contrast surface for sign faces, display bases, electronics enclosures, and premium backdrops. It blocks light completely; the gloss shows fingerprints, so matte black is the pick when you want a non-reflective face.

Made to order. Not every color and thickness is stocked at all times — if yours is temporarily out, we make or source it and ship as soon as it's back in stock. On a deadline? Email us before you order and we'll confirm your expected ship date.
