Colored Plastics LLC offers a complete line of rods in clear or color and clear tubes to fit about every need. Cast acrylic is a superior grade of plastic and can be crystal clear with a light transmission of 92%, high enough to be used in lenses and other optical applications. With the addition of special dyes beautiful, rich colors can be created in regular and fluorescent hues.

Cast acrylic is not affected by moisture or sunlight and has a high strength to weight ratio. It is approximately half the weight of glass but many times stronger. Cast acrylic also resists alkalis, inorganic acids, most detergents and cleaning solutions. We have acrylic that will block ultraviolet rays or let them pass through.

The machining qualities of cast acrylic are much superior to extruded plastic as well as its resistance to heat distortion, clarity, and higher tensile strength. It can also be heat formed without the loss of clarity.

We also handle a full line of medical grade rods and tubes.

Please browse our website to see our complete inventory of acrylic rods and tubes, as well as our canes and containers. We can custom make many items. Contact us by phone at 515-957-9367 or email us at info@coloredplastics.com.
