3mm Natural Crystal Finish
3mm Uncoated (natural crystal 3mm) - A thinner 3mm thick alternative to our 5mm thick panels. These are much more flexible than our 5mm panels, making them perfect for slight curves or situations where ultra-light applications are needed. These do not have scratch, mould and chemical resistant properties.Hob Users Important Information Your acrylic panels are not suitable for behind gas or electric ring cooker hobs unless they have a glass lift up hood/lid that protects the wall behind when in operation. They can, however, be installed behind induction and ceramic hobs if a minimum distance of 50mm is maintained.
Where a direct heat source is in use (i.e. behind gas hobs), one of our low iron toughened glass panels should be installed as an alternative.
Due to temperature variations, your panels will expand and contract slightly. With this in mind, the panels should always be installed with an expansion gap. Our recommendation is a to allow 2mm expansion on each side of your panel.
