Black Opaque Glossy Acrylic Sheets, 12 x 12 Plastic Sheet with 1/8 Inch Thickness, 3-Piece Black Opaque Acrylic Blanks for Laser Cutting & Engraving Home Decor, Wall Decor

I have been using various other materials to cut with my blue laser system. This plastic was amazing - the results were clean cut edges and very little melting.

These acrylic sheets came in a pack of 3 and are just as they were described. The color is great, however, the paper is hard to remove.

These acrylic sheets are accurately sized, cleanly cut and of course with protective paper on both sides. The color and thickness are exactly as shown on the listing and the acrylic is totally opaque. For They are exceptionally well packaged, the sheets are wrapped in a bubble wrap envelope and inside a strong cardboard sleeve.

This is a lovely blue cast acrylic. So why did I give it only 4 stars? Its the description, not the item. I am seeing this with other sellers as well, and it upsets me. In my opinion, a 12 square should measure 12 on a side. At least they did not call it 1/4 thick like others do. This measures 11 3/4 x 11 3/4. So if you are doing a special project that requires, say, a 12 circle, this is not for you. And if you need a particular thickness, this measures on a micrometer between .185 and .190 (depending on where you measure, which is normal for acrylic). From the tolerance charts for acrylic that I have found on Google, this does qualify as being listed as 1/5. As long as you know what you are actually getting, this would be a beautiful product to work with.

I got these for a logo project Im making with the laser. The scattering on this is such that it is very difficult to cut with a 20 watt 455 nm diode laser. It engraves nicely and will cut smaller pieces, but for large pieces (I was doing about 6 x 6 inch parts), the kerf cools down and the material re-flows during a pass so you never get a through cut, no matter how many passes you attempt (I stopped at 11). Because of the scattering with this color, fine details are lost as well because the scattering heats and removes material beyond the normal laser kerf. Update: I will give credit to the company. I was contacted and offered a refund for this product. I really appreciate that kind of customer service.

Works perfectly with the D1 Pro 20 watt XTool Great quality, with wonderful results (my projects were gifted before I remembered to take pictures, but everything turned out great!

One of the biggest disappointments I found with my diode laser cutter (XTool D1 10 watt) was that it couldn’t cut clear acrylic - the beam just passes straight through. But that was offset by the fact that opaque colors were easily cut. These sheets are ideal for multiple uses, although I mainly use them to verify cut files before sending them out to a service bureau for cutting in metal. I find a cut speed of 2mm per second and 3 passes works great to cut completely through the material with my 10 watt laser. Engraving can be done much faster. This is superb material for use in lasers. The cut is extremely thin, allowing for very efficient usage. It is substantial enough for most uses, but lightweight and flexible. If you have a diode laser, this is the right material for you.

These acrylic sheets are great for small projects. They come with bubble wrap protectors and have film on both the front and back for protection. When you peel the film away, the sheets are super clear and transparent. These will be great for signs. I plan on painting one side and putting custom vinyl on the other. Cant wait to see how the signs turn out.

As long as you manually set the height using the Set Focus feature on the Glowforge software, it will cut fine using the medium clear or medium black acrylic settings. These were all nice and flat with no warping. I saw some people had issues with the edges being rough or not cleanly cut, but mine had nice enough edges. I took one star off as the measurements are not exactly 12 x 12 x 1/8 but I did not need mine to be precise for what I was using it for.

The sellers web description says 12 x 12 Plastic Sheet with 1/25 Inch Thickness but actual size of items I received was about 11-11/16 inch square, or 297.5mm in metric - well short of 12 inches. (See uploaded image.) The thickness was 1.0mm as measured with a digital caliper, which is close enough to 1/25 inch as described. Otherwise the acrylic sheets looked great, and arrived well packaged in bubble envelope inside a protective cardboard box. Im giving it 4 stars due to the inaccurate size descriptions.
