Toughened Glass known as Tempered Glass
or Safety Glass
We are toughened glass suppliers for commercial
and domestic purposes.
Toughened Glass is one of two kinds of safety
glass regularly used in applications in which standard glass could
pose a potential danger. Toughened glass is up to four to five
times stronger than standard glass and does not break into sharp
shards when it fails. Toughened glass is manufactured through a
process of extreme heating and rapid cooling, making it harder than
normal glass
The nature of toughened glass causes it to shatter
into small oval-shaped pebbles when broken. This eliminates the
danger of sharp edges. Due to this property, along with its
strength, toughened glass is often referred to as safety
glass.
There are two main types of heat treated glass,
heat strengthened and fully tempered. Heat strengthened glass is
twice as strong as annealed glass while fully tempered glass is
typically four to six times the strength of annealed
glass.
Toughened glass must be cut to size or pressed to
shape before toughening and cannot be re-worked once toughened.
Polishing the edges or drilling holes in the glass is carried out
before the toughening process starts.
