What Is Hammerglass?
Hammerglass must NOT be confused with regular polycarbonate. Regular uncoated or thin coated polycarbonate quickly becomes yellow and abrades easily over time. Hammerglass is a specially coated polycarbonate sheet and its coating consists of a silicone oxide layer, which is similar to glass. This combination provides unique qualities.
