Is Trilogy impact resistant? |
 |
| |
Yes.
- Trilogy is formulated to pass the extreme impact testing normally reserved for polycarbonate.
- Trilogy is very tough, but it is not unbreakable. Specific combinations of scratch resistant and anti-reflective coatings can reduce impact performance.
- In applications that require maximum impact safety (such as industrial safety and sports), we do not recommend the application of AR coatings.
- For dress eyewear, Trilogy has enough reserve impact strength to pass FDA requirements at 1mm thickness, even when most secondary coatings have been added.
- These statements do not substitute for proper impact testing of the final product/process.

Do I need a special edger to edge Trilogy? |
|
| |
No. Many of today’s edgers have settings or macro’s built in to accommodate Trilogy. If your edger does not, the easiest way is to use a polycarbonate setting. If you use a “dry edger” or an edger that cuts with a blade, there is nothing out of the ordinary for you to worry about. Just be sure you are using a sharp clean blade. If you use a “wet edger” or one that cuts with a wheel again, use a poly-type cycle and run a small amount of water on the finish cycle. When done edging Trilogy, be sure to clean or dress the wheels to avoid any residual material being left on the wheels. |
