These economical VIS/NIR wire grid polarizers offer unmatched glare extinction and greater durability than wire grid polarizing films. They are laminated to a single piece of acrylic and intended for applications where the external surface must be exposed to potentially harsh conditions, while the internal surface is naturally protected. Appropriate examples include lighting applications, rotating polarizers threaded onto the front of lenses, and polarizers that are mounted in camera enclosures. PA1000 sheet material is routinely laser cut to desired custom shapes, sizes, and mounting configurations.
