Product description
A ready-to-use opal 3mm circular acrylic component, laser-cut from premium cast acrylic for clean edges and precise dimensions. The opal colour runs through the full 3mm thickness for a consistent finish on all faces and edges. The opal finish provides a translucent white surface with 46% light transmission that diffuses light evenly — well suited to backlit displays and light diffuser components.
Manufactured from the same high-grade cast acrylic as the full sheet range, these opal discs offer the same impact resistance, UV stability, and weather resistance. Up to 17 times stronger than glass and approximately half the weight, they are a practical, durable material for both decorative and functional circular applications.
Commonly used for cake toppers, display bases, coasters, clock faces, awards, circular signage, and bespoke craft projects. The opal disc can be further customised with laser engraving, printing, or additional cutting for cutouts and shaped designs. Available in a range of standard diameters.
