As per our Shipping and Returns Policy, custom cuts and fabricated parts are non-returnable. If you need an over- or undersized item, note it under "Comments" during Checkout. Cut-to-size orders have an acceptable cut tolerance of 1/8" (0.125"), so clarify if the adjustment is to be made on the (+) or (-) side of the saw blade.Please review our full return and shipping policy here.
Measure Twice, Cut Once
Since custom cuts and fabricated parts are non-refundable, be very careful while measuring your dimensions. As each cut is nominal, even the slightest miscalculation could be costly.
How to Use a Measuring Tape
Extend your tape measure several inches to find the 1 and 2 inch markers. In between the inch markers you’ll find 16 equally spaced tick marks.
Measure by counting the increments beyond the nearest inch. As the increments decrease, so does the length of the mark. For example, 1/2" has a bigger mark than 1/4" which has a bigger mark than 1/8". The smallest mark follows at 1/16". Please be aware that some measuring tapes may have even smaller increments.
Features of a Measuring Tape: Sliding End Hook
The sliding end hook is designed for two different types of measurements. An outside measurement (where the hook of the tape hangs over an edge), requires the hook to slide out a bit to account for the thickness of the material. When making an inside measurement (where the hook will push up against a surface), the clip slides in, again, accounting for its thickness. The measuring tape self-adjusts to guarantee an accurate measurement (as far as the tape is concerned).
Sanitizing Acrylic and Polycarbonate Sheet [X]
Acrylic and Polycarbonate Sneeze Guards and like products require special care while cleaning and disinfecting. To maintain the optical clarity of sneeze guards and other acrylic or polycarbonate items, use an acrylic or polycarbonate safe cleaner like Novus Plastic Polish #1, Brillianize Plastic Cleaner, or a mild soap solution.
Please reference the following compatible cleaners when DISINFECTING acrylic and polycarbonate items. The use of commonly available commercial alcohol or ammonia-based disinfectants may cause crazing and damage.
Our medical grade Polypro is an FDA approved homopolymer polypropylene based product with exceptionally low residual stress to facilitate the fabrication of dimensionally stable parts with varying cross sections. It can withstand repeated hot steam sterilization procedures without deforming and has a high resistivity to detergents and disinfectants. Standard color is white but can be produced in any color.
Polypropylene is a thermoplastic polymer used in a wide variety of applications including packaging and labeling, textiles (e.g. wicking clothing, ropes, thermal underwear and carpets), stationery, reusable containers, laboratory equipment, animal enclosures, loudspeakers, automotive components, and polymer banknotes. It is rugged, light weight, abrasion resistant, and has high strength. Polypropylene is also good at transporting moisture and extremely resistant to many chemical solvents, bases and acids. Polypropylene is available in fluted, sheet, and medical grade forms, and comes in a variety of colors.

I've been using Interstate Plastics for a long time now, since back in the day when shipping wasn't out of hand. Anyway, since things have switched completely, I've had nothing but issues with shipping costs. Slow shipping, sometimes takes days to get a tracking number etc
