NEW YORK GLASS TEMPERING

Tempered glass or toughened glass is one of two kinds of safety glass which is physically and thermally stronger than regular glass. It is safer than the regular glasses and has a massive use where standard glasses can pose a potential danger.

Tempered glass is manufactured through a process of extreme heating and rapid cooling, which actually makes the glass harder than regular glasses. Tempered glass breaks in a unique way. If any part of the glass fails, the whole panel shatters at once. And it shatters into small oval-shaped pebbles when broken, eliminating the danger of sharp edges. Therefore it is often referred to as safety glass.

Bear Glass is a third generation glass company and has proven its expertise in all kind of glass works. Bear Glass recommends tempered glass for low level fire safety. The greater contraction of the inner layer during manufacturing induces surface stresses of the glass, and that helps tempered glass to break into small pieces, rather than breaking into dangerous sharp-shards, reducing the chance of severe damages.

The manufacturing process makes tempered glass heat resistant also. Hence it is used as heat protector along with the carafes in automatic coffee makers or the windows in ovens. Tempered glass is also used to make computer screens, skylights, door windows, tub enclosures. Tempered glass shower doors are also a big hit now-a-days.

Tempered glass has massive usage for automobiles. Laminated glass is used as windshield when tempered glass is used for door-windows and as rear window so that if the glasses break, the driver or passengers remain unhurt.
