Boost Your Performance with Lexan Polycarbonate Windows

For serious racers, having the right windows can make all the difference between victory and defeat. Lexan race car windows are built for speed, safety, and durability—helping you gain that competitive edge on the track. Lightweight and tough, Lexan windows deliver top-notch performance, ensuring that your car is both faster and better protected from the rigours of racing.

What are Lexan Polycarbonate Windows?

Lexan is a high-performance polycarbonate resin thermoplastic that is widely recognised for its incredible strength and versatility. Unlike traditional glass, which is brittle and prone to cracking, Lexan can handle extreme forces without breaking, making it the go-to material for motorsport windows. Its transparency and resistance to high temperatures make it ideal for race cars where both visibility and safety are essential.

Lexan isn’t just glass—it’s far superior. Whether you're dealing with flying debris, extreme weather conditions, or the heat of the race, Lexan windows are built to take it all in stride, withstanding impact and environmental challenges that would shatter ordinary glass.

Benefits of Lexan Car Windows

Switching to Lexan polycarbonate windows comes with a host of advantages:

Ultimate Impact Resistance:

With a strength 250 times greater than glass, Lexan windows provide unmatched protection against debris and collisions.

Lightweight for Performance:

Lexan is much lighter than traditional glass, reducing the overall weight of your vehicle, which can enhance acceleration and handling.

Clarity and Light Transmission:

Lexan delivers optical clarity on par with glass, giving you a crystal-clear view without sacrificing safety.

Temperature Resistance:

Built to withstand temperatures from -40°C to over 100°C, Lexan windows won’t warp or lose performance in extreme racing conditions.

Custom Fit:

Lexan windows can be cold-formed to fit the unique contours of your car, providing a seamless finish that ensures maximum aerodynamics.

Which is the Best Type of Polycarbonate Windows?

When choosing polycarbonate windows for your race car, you’ll encounter names like Lexan, Makrolon, and Arla. These are all premium polycarbonate brands, and while they offer similar strength and durability, each has its own strengths.

In terms of performance and availability, Lexan is a popular choice among motorsport enthusiasts due to its superior impact resistance and ease of manufacturing. However, Makrolon and Arla also provide high-quality options that are also suitable for racing applications. The key difference often comes down to the supply chain, with Lexan being readily available and widely trusted in motorsport circles.
