1/4" fluorescent yellow in practice

Fluorescent acrylic collects light across the face and releases it at the cut edge, and thickness is what you are buying: at 1/4" the edge presents a broad glowing band, which is what makes signage and standing letters read from a distance. A polished edge makes the effect noticeably stronger.

This is the first gauge that stands up on its own: rigid enough for free-standing pieces, risers and structural parts rather than only framed panels.

In a laser: a CO2 machine cuts this cleanly and leaves a flame-polished edge. A diode laser will not cut it at any setting — the beam passes straight through transparent acrylic.

1/4" fluorescent yellow (colour 9097) runs $11.54 per square foot at this gauge and weighs about 1.56 lb per square foot, so a 24″ × 48″ piece comes to roughly 12.5 lb — worth knowing before you size a panel someone has to lift or ship.

Why 1/4" fluorescent yellow acrylic?

The all-purpose workhorse and our most popular thickness. At 1/4″, acrylic is rigid enough to stand on its own in most sizes, which is why it's the default for tabletops, shelving, risers, desk shields, and protective barriers. If you're unsure which thickness to choose, this is usually the right starting point.
