The Unsurpassed Advantages of Polycarbonate Enclosures

UV Protection

Fiberglass enclosures will “bloom” when exposed to sunlight. In fact, manufacturers of FRP enclosures recommend painting their products. This is not necessary with Integra thermoplastic enclosures.

Outdoor UV exposure ratings for both the Premium and JIC lines are F1. See Engineering Properties on page 25 for more details.

  

   

Impact Resistance

The engineered thermoplastic enclosure has dramatically better impact resistance. For example, the Premium Line enclosure has an impact resistance of over 900 lb/in, while fiberglass typically has an impact resistance of less than 220 lb/in.

Ease Of Modification

Thermoplastic enclosures are much easier and safer to machine, with none of the dust and splintering associated with fiberglass.
