1/2" white in practice
Translucent stock diffuses rather than transmits, and thickness controls how much: at 1/2" it softens a light source considerably, hiding lamps and LEDs behind an even glow at the cost of brightness.
Solid enough to machine, tap and edge-finish like a workpiece rather than a sheet — the range where acrylic is being used as a component, not a covering.
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, and at 1/2" a diode is optimistic regardless.
1/2" white (color 7508) starts at $14.89 for a 12″ × 12″ piece at this thickness, and weighs about 3.12 lb per square foot, so a 24″ × 48″ piece comes to roughly 25 lb — worth knowing before you size a panel someone has to lift or ship.
Why 1/2" white acrylic?
A premium, solid sheet with real presence. At 1/2″, acrylic feels like a finished slab — ideal for tabletops, structural panels, weighted bases, and machine guards. The thicker edge also takes a polish beautifully, giving a clean, glass-like border.
About White acrylic
White 7508 is another translucent glossy white in our range. It transmits and diffuses backlight for even illumination and reads bright and reflective by day. Pick it for light boxes, sign faces, and panels; across our translucent glossy whites (2067, 2447, 7508) the differences are subtle, so match to your existing white where possible — 7328 is the opaque one and won't backlight.
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.
