· Continuous Tempering Furnace can produce 3mm -12mm tempered glass
· Tempered glass is produced by heating annealed glass in a furnace to 620°C. Progressing from the furnace, the glass is rapidly cooled with jets of cold air, inducing compressive stresses to the surface while the center remains tensile.
· 5-8 times stronger than annealed glass of the same thickness.
· Stronger resistance to thermal breakage than annealed or heat strengthened glass
· If breakage occurs the glass breaks up into small, cubical fragments, which are not threatening to humans.
· All work done on glass (beveling, cutting, bending, etc) must be done before tempering.
