Rail Glazing
Rail windows must shrug off whatever the environment and people can do to them. New safety requirements, new demands for aesthetics, and new needs for abrasion-resistance -- all may be accomplished with SABIC resins, sheets and laminates.
Virtually unbreakable LEXAN™ resins, and LEXAN sheet from SABIC, especially with MARGARD™ abrasion resistant coatings, offer water-clear transparency, light weight, and a broad range of tinting, decorative and forming options. Glass laminated sheet in particular answers a broad range of rail needs. For high optical quality applications, extruded LEXAN™ MARGARD sheet has one of the tightest measurable specification with regard to black specs, inclusions, bubbles, lints & fibers, distortion and ripples.
