- Acrylite RinkShield
ACRYLITE® RinkShield® acrylic sheet is the new standard in spectator shielding.
The only acrylic engineered to meet ASTM and NHL regulations,
RinkShield sheet holds up to puck and player impacts, provides
greater flexibility than tempered glass, clearer viewing for fans
and easier, quicker changeover operations for facilities.
RinkShield sheet outperforms NHL deflection benchmarks for
spectator shielding. A three-fold reduction in reaction forces over
tempered glass significantly reduces the effect of impact on
players and the possibility of injury. This is just one reason why
arenas are making the switch from seamless glass to acrylic
shielding systems.
Another reason is easy facility changeovers. Weighing 100 lbs.
less per pane than glass, RinkShield sheet is easier to handle and
fabricate. Facility personnel can customize acrylic shielding
on-site for camera portals and rink entrance gates allowing the
arena to cut down on the amount of replacement stock they
maintain.
RinkShield sheet is available in two full-gauge thicknesses, 2
surface choices and 2 sheet sizes. Ask for "RinkShield" by name and
eliminate aggravation caused by metric/imperial equivalents or
"acceptable tolerance".
RinkShield sheet can be found in facilities around the
world.
