ACRYLITE® LED rod is ideal for transmitting high-powered LED light. Its unique light-conducting properties distribute light evenly throughout the entire rod surface. As light enters from the end, embedded colorless diffuser particles scatter the light forward and exit the surface at low angles. This results in uniform bright illumination. ACRYLITE® LED light-guiding rods are the only product on the market today offering light transmission in a round rod form.
This material is easily thermoformed without compromising functionality. We offer three grades for maximum illumination dependent on the length of the desired application.

ProductACRYLITE® light guiding acrylic rod has unique light conducting properties that distribute light evenly throughout the entire rod surface. As light enters from the end, embedded colorless diffuser particles scatter the light forward and exit the surface at low angles resulting in uniformly bright illumination. Features & Benefits
Applications
FabricationThis material can be machined using the same methods as standard extruded acrylic rod. Diamond milling or flame polishing the rough end will reduce loss of light upon entry by as much as 6% compared to a sawed edge. It is possible to matte the surface of the rod through sandblasting or matte lacquer. However, this can lead to irregular lighting and decrease the luminance as the rough surface disperses the light. ![]() Uniform IlluminationIlluminated by LED lights at one or both ends, it disperses light evenly throughout, whereas conventional acrylic rod glow only at one end. Additionally, ACRYLITE® light guiding rod can be easily formed into shapes and letters without compromising functionality. ![]() This image shows the top rod with led light on the left and reflective tape on the right and the bottom rod with led light on both sides of the rod.
