QUALITY GUARANTEED
Canal Plastics Center stocks extruded acrylic rods and tubes across the widest size and finish range we know of in the US - clear round rods from 1/16″ up to 3″, clear round tubes from ¼″ up to 12″ OD including large-diameter sizes at 8″, 10″, and 12″ that most distributors don’t carry, frosted tubing up to 6″ OD, and colored rods and tubes in translucent, opaque, and fluorescent finishes. Everything is in stock and available for same-day cutting.
Extruded acrylic is lighter and more shatter-resistant than glass, machines cleanly, and bonds with standard acrylic solvents. It’s the material of choice for lighting designers building LED housings and diffusion channels, set builders and prop fabricators working at scale, architects and model makers specifying structural and display elements, sign makers, aquarium builders, and retail fixture fabricators. The full fabrication shop is on-site at 345 Canal Street - cut to length, end polishing, drilling, and custom cuts are all done in-house.
All rods and tubes ship with saw-cut edges. End polishing is available on request. Custom lengths up to 72″ are available via our order form here. Lengths 48″ and over incur an oversize shipping charge.
