10mm Toughened Glass by Elite Safety Glass

It is processed by heating 10mm clear float glass, 10mm low iron glass, or 10mm Low-e glass to 650 degrees softening point, and then quenched rapidly. It creates tension inside the glass and compression outside the glass surface.

Heating Time

10mm clear/low iron tempered glass in Radiant furnace: 39s/mm, total 388 seconds~398 seconds

10mm clear/low iron toughened glass in Forced Convection furnace: 28s/mm, 275 seconds~285 seconds

10mm tinted/colored tempered glass in Radiant furnace: 35s/mm, 352 seconds~362 seconds

10mm tinted/colored toughened glass in Forced Convection furnace: 28s/mm, 275 seconds~285 seconds

 

Quenching Time

10mm toughened glass Quench Time=Glass Thickness^1.8=10mm^1.8=63s

 

Compression & Tension Zone

21% (2.10mm) up & down part with compression, 58% (5.80mm) middle part with tension.

Surface compression >90Mpa (over 13000Psi).

 

10mm Toughened Glass Standard & Certificate

North American

ASTM C1048 standard, SGCC certificate

Europe

EN12150 standard, CE certificate

Australia & New Zealand

AS/NZS2208-1996 standard, AS/NZS 2208 certificate

 

Features & Benefits

 

Quality

<0.2% local bow & <0.3% arc bow standard, with non-visual defects in the surface.

Flexibility 

3~5 stable cooperative factories to guarantee lead time based on different requests.

Turnkey Solution

From smaller size glass louver to giant glass 3660mm*18000mm toughened glass.

Safety

when 10mm tempered glass is broken, it will break into granularities to prevent series of injuries.   

Strength

10mm tempered glass is about 4~5 times stronger than 10mm annealed glass.

Stability

10mm toughened glass can withstand 280℃ temperature variation. 

 

Applications
