3/16" gray matte in practice

Translucent stock diffuses rather than transmits, and thickness controls how much: at 3/16" it softens a light source considerably, hiding lamps and LEDs behind an even glow at the cost of brightness.

Here the sheet starts to feel stiff in the hand and spans further without visible bow, while staying easy to cut and drill on ordinary tools.

In a laser: CO2 cuts it without trouble. A diode usually will too — pigment is what absorbs the beam — but translucent shades vary, so test an offcut before committing a sheet.

The matte face hides fingerprints and cuts glare, and it will not polish back to gloss if scratched — keep the masking on until the piece is installed.

3/16" gray matte (colour 7413MD) runs $9.48 per square foot at this gauge and weighs about 1.17 lb per square foot, so a 24″ × 48″ piece comes to roughly 9.4 lb — worth knowing before you size a panel someone has to lift or ship.

Why 3/16" gray matte acrylic?

A middle step between 1/8″ and 1/4″. The extra thickness adds noticeably more rigidity while keeping weight down, so it holds its shape better across medium panels — useful for signage, partitions, and light-duty panels that need a bit more backbone than 1/8″.

About Gray Matte acrylic

Gray Matte 7413 is a see-through gray with one matte side — a smoked, hazy look that softens whatever sits behind it. It's popular for privacy panels, AV and tech enclosures, and contemporary signage where you want tint plus a non-reflective surface. Lighter and more translucent than our solid grays.
