1/8" black in practice

Opaque stock blocks light entirely, so at 1/8" the decision is structural and visual rather than optical — you are choosing how solid the piece needs to feel and look.

This is the lightest gauge that still holds itself flat in a frame, which is why it is the default for signage faces and glazing where something else carries the load.

In a laser: pigment absorbs the beam, so this cuts on a CO2 machine and on a diode, and at this gauge a diode will usually manage it in a pass or two.

1/8" black (colour 2025) runs $6.33 per square foot at this gauge and weighs about 0.78 lb per square foot, so a 24″ × 48″ piece comes to roughly 6.2 lb — worth knowing before you size a panel someone has to lift or ship.

Why 1/8" black acrylic?

The thinnest acrylic we stock, and the most economical. At 1/8″ it stays light and easy to handle, which makes it a go-to for signage, glazing, picture-frame glass, and point-of-purchase displays. It has some flex in larger panels, so it's best where it's framed or supported rather than free-standing.

About Black acrylic

Black 2025 is deep, glossy, fully opaque black — the mirror-finish counterpart to our black matte. It gives a rich, reflective, high-contrast surface for sign faces, display bases, electronics enclosures, and premium backdrops. It blocks light completely; the gloss shows fingerprints, so matte black is the pick when you want a non-reflective face.

Made to order. Not every color and thickness is stocked at all times — if yours is temporarily out, we make or source it and ship as soon as it's back in stock. On a deadline? Email us before you order and we'll confirm your expected ship date.
