19mm Tempered Heat Strengthened Glass

Heat-strengthened (HS) glass is not a safety glass, it is heat treated glass, but when it is broken, the breakage pattern prevents the glass from falling and injuring people.

 

Heat Strengthened Glass

Heat-strengthened glass is a type of glass that has undergone a specific heat treatment process to enhance its strength and durability, making it a valuable material in various architectural and structural applications. Heat-strengthened glass doesn’t require the strength of fully tempered glass and is intended fir applications that that do not specifically require a safety glass product.

 

Characteristics of Heat-Strengthened Glass

Strength: Heat-strengthened glass is stronger than regular annealed glass but not as strong as fully tempered glass. It is designed to resist higher levels of wind pressure and thermal stress compared to standard glass.

 

Safety: When heat-strengthened glass breaks, it typically forms larger, less sharp shards than annealed glass. While it does not provide the same level of safety as tempered glass, it reduces the risk of serious injury due to glass shards.

 

Resistance to Thermal Stress: Heat-strengthened glass has improved resistance to thermal stress, making it suitable for applications where temperature fluctuations occur, such as in facades exposed to direct sunlight.

 

Optical Clarity: It maintains good optical clarity, making it suitable for applications where a clear view is essential, such as windows and architectural glazing.

 

Applications of Heat-Strengthened Glass

Curtain Walls: Heat-strengthened glass is commonly used in curtain wall systems for commercial buildings. Its ability to withstand wind loads and temperature changes makes it a reliable choice for large glass facades.

 

Windows: It is used in windows, especially those that are larger in size, to improve their structural integrity and resistance to thermal stress.

 

Glass Doors: Heat-strengthened glass can be used in entrance doors and interior glass doors to enhance their strength while maintaining visibility.

 

Skylights: Skylights and overhead glazing often employ heat-strengthened glass to withstand weather conditions and provide natural light to interior spaces.

 

Partitions: In office spaces and interior design, heat-strengthened glass can be used for glass partitions, creating visually open and well-lit areas.

 

Balcony Railings: It is used in balcony railings, providing safety and structural support while allowing for unobstructed views.

 

Storefronts: Commercial storefronts may incorporate heat-strengthened glass to ensure both aesthetics and security.

 

Display Cases: Retail display cases and museum showcases often use heat-strengthened glass for improved safety and clarity.

 

Canopies: Glass canopies and shelters can benefit from the strength and durability of heat-strengthened glass
