1/4" purple in practice

Transparent stock at 1/4" reads as a piece with visible depth, where the edge color and the thickness itself become part of the look.

This is the first thickness 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" purple (color 373) starts at $9.49 for a 12″ × 12″ piece at this thickness, 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" purple 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.

About Purple acrylic

Purple 373 — chip engraved HH-373, and also listed as violet — is a lighter, more see-through purple than our Violet 2287, letting more light and color pass through. It's a fit for decorative glazing, signage, and layered acrylic art. Quote 373 or HH-373 when matching this specific shade, whether your spec calls it purple or violet.
