Polycast® White Lighting Acrylic Tubes – High-Performance Cast Tubing for Architectural & Industrial Lighting

Polycast White Lighting Tubes ® offer a premium solution for professionals in the lighting, architectural, and industrial design industries. Made from cast acrylic, these tubes deliver exceptional optical clarity, high tensile strength, and superior light diffusion, making them ideal for backlit displays, pendant lighting, LED enclosures, wall sconces and other illuminated applications.

When lit from within, these tubes emit a soft white glow with approximately 40% light transmission, producing clean, even illumination that’s perfect for modern design aesthetics. Unlike extruded plastics, cast acrylic maintains consistent clarity and dimensional stability, even under UV exposure or varying temperatures—making it suitable for both indoor and controlled-environment outdoor settings.

Whether you’re creating dramatic lighting installations, custom signage, or light-guiding architectural elements, Polycast tubes are easy to fabricate, cut, and machine to suit your exact needs.

Choose Your Preferred Length to Save on Shipping

We offer flexible length options for 6-foot rod, tube, and rollstock materials.
To help you avoid costly carrier surcharges, choose the option that works best for your needs:

  • Standard 6-Foot Length (Oversize)
    Carrier-mandated oversize fee applies due to package dimensions exceeding 48”. This charge is added by UPS/FedEx—not TAP Plastics—and covers manual handling of long items. Only one oversize fee is applied per order.

  • Cut at 3-Foot Lengths (No Oversize Fee)
    We'll cut your item in half at no additional cost to help you avoid the oversize shipping charge. Perfect for smaller projects or convenient handling.

  • Custom Length (Specify in Checkout Comments)
    Need specific sizes? Select “Other (specified in comments).”
    Custom cutting is available—some requests may incur a labor fee. We’ll contact you with details before processing.

Why the Fee?
UPS and FedEx charge extra for packages over 48" long—including required padding—for manual handling. These oversize fees apply on top of regular shipping rates, and may also apply to heavy or extra-long packages. TAP applies a flat fee to help cover these added carrier costs.
