6mm Tempered Glass

6mm toughened glass is produce by a process in which ordinary 6mm float glass, heat it up to a temperature of around 620°C for some time followed by abrupt cooling using jets of cold air. As a result of this process, the outside of the glass is forced into compression while the inside remains free to float for some time (creating tension on the inside). The higher the thermal expansion of the glass and the lower its thermal conductivity, the higher will be the level of residue stresses, and as a result of this, the stronger will be the resulting glass.

Annealed Glass vs Toughened Glass

Advantages of Toughened Glasss

• Toughened glass is about to 6 times stronger than normal float glass. Moreover, the process of tempering does not affect any other property of the glass. Hence, with the same visible light transmission as normal float glass comes simply greater strength.

• Toughened glass is able to withstand massive differences in temperature (of up to 250°C) whereas normal float glass can handle only up to 40°C.

• Tempering of glass renders it difficult to break and even when it does due to whatsoever reasons, it will fall apart into very small, blunt, cube-like pieces that do not cause fatal injuries.

• Toughened glass is highly resistant to electric and thermal shock.

• Its high durability makes frequent replacement redundant. Hence, the glass can easily be used for a long, long time.

Applications of Tempered Glass

• Toughened glass is typically used in commercial applications where wind, snow and thermal impact make the use of normal glass futile.

• When mixed with tinted glass, laminated glass, insulated glass, etc. toughened glass can be used in various components of a building such as escalator side panels, balustrades, handrails, skylight glazing, etc.

• Moreover, they are also used in high-rise buildings due to their ability to handle heavy load easily.
