Product Definition
DEGLAS® IMPACT acrylic sheets are multi-walled sheets extruded from impact modified
acrylic (polymethyl methacrylate, PMMA) polymer.
This warranty applies to DEGLAS IMPACT, 32 mm (1 ¼”), 16 mm (5/8”) and 8 mm (5/16”)
thick multi-walled acrylic sheet in clear 0119 NO DRIP®.
Warranty Statements
- DEGLAS IMPACT acrylic sheets retain their light transmission.
This means that the sheets are guaranteed to show the following light transmittance values*
(upon delivery / after 10 years):
Typical Values Guaranteed Values
On delivery After 10 years
The DEGLAS IMPACT sheet 8 mm & 16 mm
Clear 0119 NO DRIP 86% 83% ≥ 83% ≥ 79%
The DEGLAS IMPACT sheet 32 mm 32 mm
Clear 0119 NO DRIP 76% 72% ≥ 72% ≥68%
The transmittance is measured according to DIN 5063 on clean, polished specimens that
have been conditioned to the equilibrium state in the standard climate of 23°C (73°F) at
50% relative humidity.
- DEGLAS IMPACT acrylic sheets will not be broken by hail during the warranty period.
Breakage by hail within the meaning of this warranty is defined as at least 5 holes at
different points in the surfaces of the double-skinned sheets, produced by 10 shots
during the hail simulation test described below.
|
Hail simulation test:
Pellets of polyamide (PA 6.6) with a diameter of 20 mm (~ 0.8”) (weight approx. 4.5 g) are propelled against the weathered surface of the test specimen at a speed of 21 m/s (69 ft/s), corresponding to a kinetic energy
of 1 joule, at room temperature.
Information:
According to an expert, a natural hailstone of 23 mm (~ 0.9”) in diameter has an average
impact velocity of 17 m/s (~ 56 ft/s), corresponding to a kinetic energy of 1 joule. Furthermore,
a hailstone study has established that the average frequency of hailstones of more than
10 mm in diameter is only 2.9%. Hailstones of a greater diameter are less frequent.
Conditions of Warranty
The sheets:
- must be stored, transported, fabricated and installed (or used) in a manner that suits the material;
- must not be thermoformed;
- must not be (adversely) affected by connecting, fastening and sealing elements;
- and must be protected against adverse chemical influences.
This warranty applies throughout North America. For warranty questions concerning
applications outside North America, please contact us.

Applicability
A complaint under this warranty will be considered:
if caused within the warranty period despite demonstrable observance of the conditions of warranty;
if made in writing without delay during the warranty period;
and if an invoice issued by the salesperson is presented, showing the name and address of the buyer, the purchase date, complete product description and number of sheets purchased.
If the complaint is justified, we will replace the material. At our discretion, replacement will be either in the form of direct material replacement or a refund of the full purchase price. We shall have no liability whatsoever for the cost of removal or disposal of defective sheet, or the installation of replacement sheet, for damages to persons or property, or for indirect, incidental, or consequential damages.
Some states do not allow exclusion or limiting of incidental or consequential damages, so the above exclusion may not apply to you. This warranty gives you specific legal rights. You may also have other rights which vary from state to state.
Guarantee Period
This guarantee commences with the date of delivery to the user and ends ten years later.
