Goodness that's overkill, way too thick for anything I can think of. I think the thickest POLYCARBONATE (not acrylic! Never!) we use is just under 3/16, and that's a major structural element of the robot.

I can think of something. Though even then it was only 1/4". http://www.chiefdelphi.com/media/photos/21476


Oh, and we were thinking of using plexiglass (or rather, "unidentified clear plastic") on the robot this year. A quick "smack! test" from a mentor left several pieces on the floor, and we found something else right away.
