Advantages of using toughened stepped glasses
compared to flat or moulded/cast glasses: |
| |
| • No mould costs, enabling savings when different sizes |
| |
for a large range of products is required. |
| |
| • Extra white glass: |
| |
- Low iron oxide glass with a premium surface |
| |
|
quality. |
| |
- Extremely clear. It does not contain the common |
| |
|
greenish colour of standard float glass therefore it
does not falsify colour's and is neutral in lighting
applications. |
| |
- Very high light transmission properties. |
| |
- Efficiency, does not heat up as much as standard |
| |
|
float glass and therefore offers advantages when
surface temperatures play an important role,
e.g.in ground uplights - in some applications,
(depending on design and construction) the
temperature of the cover glass can be reduced
about 10–20%. |
| |
| • Temperature resistance up to 280ºC. |
| |
| • Higher resistance to thermal shock. |
| |
| • Higher precision processing. |
| |
| • Higher mechanical stability. |
| |
| • Step shaped glass seals with the fitting in one |
| |
plane, resulting in superior seal and IP ratings. |
| |
| • Glasses can be finished with anti-slip surface print, |
| |
logos/patterns. |
| |
| • Extra white stepped glass thicknesses: |
| |
5-6-8-10-12-15-19mm. |
| |
| • Processed in a wide variety of shapes and sizes |
| |
to meet specific requirements. |
| |
|
| • Technical assistance can be provided from |
| |
development to final product - temperature and load
testing. |
| |
|
| • Machined standard and special support |
| |
components. |
